The bridge between a cycle we want to end
And a cycle just beginning
I know, I know, I know
I can be a guide, I can be a light

When glass breaks the cracks take over
The story of a whole is buried in these tendrils
In these tendrils that snake across the surface
Here and everywhere
If we grabbed that story 
The cut's a blemish
A distraction from a path is really all we need

One step past good taste 
Two steps in reverse 
Three steps in this case 
Four steps break this curse

So breathe in this beginning
Beginning an overdue end
Every end, another chance
To change the story at hand

You don't need to point it out
I've become you despite a better effort
I've become a worse version of myself
All the answers with none of the charm 
Breathtaking view
All of the heat and flash we left in the past
Consuming each breathe
A wish tossed out without thought
Everything she told me above the flowers she had left behind
All those words wrung out
Beaten answers out of me
All the answers, none of the charm
