Turn another page inside an empty soul
Yellow colors age a longing to be whole
Somewhere down the road
Believe I will be fine
Telling myself
I will in time.
It gets so hard each day
To keep calm and hold on
Trouble always finds
Another way to drain
My strength till it’s gone
Got to get up again
Keep my eyes on the prize
And realize…
When I lose myself I see
Everything worthwhile I do
Shows the real me all along
In love it’s true
Love is true.
A world turned upside down
Can’t stay alive for long
Storms of warfare bleed
Tell me what has gone wrong
Are we all meant to die
And never know our cause
Take time to pause.
And then lose yourself to see
Everything worthwhile you do
Shows the real you all along
Love is true.
All we are is meant to be
Giving love will set us free.
When I lose myself I see
Everything worthwhile I do
Shows the real me all along
In love it’s true
Love is true.
