Better Part Of Me

Grey Eye Glances

given the space and the time now removed given a gift I can feel

looking through choices

we made just to live

looking back now at the reasons they give I start to breathe

it shows in me

a better part of me

 

all of my instincts and all of my pride

tell me the way it should be

as I remember

I barely recall

something that changed me

you took it for all you took from me

until you see

a better part of me

 

now whenever you start it moving

tell me what you need

soon if only all you know

maybe not indeed

 

peering out over the mountains of fear

seeing them as they appear

grasping for vision

in a valley of lies

to bring down the mountain

I must close my eyes

so I might see

so I might free

a better part of me

 

now whenever you start it moving

tell me what you need

soon if only all you know

maybe not indeed
