Carry Me

How does one truly describe change?

And it's goodbye to everything we've known
That cuts through scars the deepest
It's the hopes that settled in our hearts
That set out to mislead us
Dusty roads that covered our regrets
That lead us back to truth
As the dirt that swallowed up our lives
Leaves no trace left of youth
And in the waters we once floated
Our denial ringing in our ears
We tread through constant waves of doubt
Before drowning in our fears
With flames so intense they melt through caution
We burn danger into our skin
And in the ashes we leave in our wake
We pray new life begins
But storms of accusations come
And blacken out the day
Chances are the winds of change will come
And blow them all away
