Something New

I’ve seen the beauty, I’ve seen the devil I’ve been around the purity, I know why Cain killed Abel There are blockades in our life There’s right and wrong So we wish we could ignore But we don’t know which to do Sometimes everything seems wrong There are things you have to choose We left when we want more That’s not the right thing to do When life tears you apart It makes a life that choice That's when you think real hard And come up with what’s yours Bury me in the sand Lift my name up high From wounds of a wanted man To the cape that allows you to fly You can’t always take it with you But you can find a home You are welcomed everywhere But some places you can’t go Just when you’re at you lowest Your peak will surely grow You can’t always pretend And I know you know Even though you can’t find me You know where we are This is where I come in And take us to the stars And I know what to do I know I can’t stay Stay away from you Just when you got down You think you’re not around But I know that ain’t true Take a look around We got plans to make I can’t get away from you And you will always find something new You know it’s what we’re meant to do No matter what we’re going through You will always find something new And I know where we are And you know where we are You can’t always pretend And I know where we are And you know where we are Even though you can’t always find me
