Through the smoke of strange surroundings
I wander past old delicate buildings
Remembering the old life I once lead
I feel so far from yesterday
You walk down a road but you're going the wrong way
In city streets I'm lost but I'll find my way
I always do, I always do
Every muse is abandoned like a wisp
An impulsive thought pushing through
But then I find myself on the same old road
Telling myself things I already know
Holding on and never letting go
I hear the echo of footprints getting close
When I lie awake at night thinking
We are lovers in the dark
Always together, we're never apart
I hold onto Jesus around my neck, so sweet
The air I breathe is awkward
Conversations enough to make me self-conscious
I wind up passive-aggressive, so defensive
Wasted and selfish
In a pile of dying flowers
Between the stars, my contradictions
Lost but I'll find my way.

That way is always there for you XX, it is through the next door you come to.
