Healing, But Lost

Patience takes time to develop and self-control is not easy to handle
Wounds heal when words are left unspoken
Forgiveness in its prime is heartfelt and your soul is so beautiful
Bound to reveal to you my love over and over again

You make things new
With your love, so true
Who knew we’d do the things we do
Didn’t know the things you’ve been through

I haven’t realized that I’m lost in the woods of your mind…
That’s where I hide
You’re so gentle and kind —
Vitality and vivaciousness is in your serene stride 
I’m holding on to you so tightly, so freely
Not by your side
I’m frightened of losing control so easily
Where do you abide?

I’m numb and fractured in the deep inside
I’ve become so injured in my comforting arms tonight
I’m somewhat pleased to be by your side
I’m your plum of delight and we’re a kid’s kite, so out of sight 

You make things new
With your love, so true
Who knew we’d do the things we do
Didn’t know the things you’ve been through

I haven’t realized that I’m lost in the woods of your mind…
That’s where I hide
You’re so kind and gentle —
Vitality and vivaciousness is in your serene stride 
I’m holding on to you so tightly, so freely
Where do you hide?
I’m frightened of losing control so easily
Something in me has died

I’m healing, yet oh so lost, so lost, lost
I’m dealing with life’s expensive cost
I’m in appall the moment I fell into the deep unknown
I, alone, have felt your pain of all alone, all alone, alone

You make things new
With your love, so true
Who knew we’d do the things we do
Didn’t know the things you’ve been through

I haven’t realized that I’m lost in the woods of your mind…
That’s where I hide
You’re so kind and gentle —
Vitality and vivaciousness is in your serene stride 
I’m holding on to you so tightly, so freely
Where’s your broken pride?
I’m frightened of losing control so easily
We’ll get through this tide

You make things new
With your love, so true
Who knew we’d do the things we do
Didn’t know the things you’ve been through

You make things new
With your love, so true
Who knew we’d do the things we do
Didn’t know the things you’ve been through

You made it out alive, oh so alive
Without the rue, you will survive
Who knew you’d go through the feelings of alone
Who knew we’d go through it together as we heal on our own
Though we’re concealing positivity 
I’m oh so lost away
Blow away the conniving negativity
Of yesterday’s dismay
