Zach Mitchell Poet Lyric

Purpose

It's too easy to miss life's beauty in the midst of pain 
I gotta believe this isn't all for nothing 
This heart is crumbling in my chest
What happens when I lay to rest 

I've lived day after day dying to find
A reason to hang on to life 
I've been given so much
Possessions and love 
Still my worth im unsure of
In the midst of everything 
I'm left here so empty

I sit and watch crowds of people 
I wonder if their smiles are just a mask 
Or is it possible to keep your heart in tact
I need to know if I can enjoy beauty again 
If I showed you my pain, would your heart let me in

It's too easy to miss life's beauty in the midst of pain 
I gotta believe this isn't all for nothing 
This heart is crumbling in my chest
What happens when I lay to rest 

I desire to see the world with a heart of a child 
Oh to let my imagination run wild 
Maybe ignorance is bliss
Because the more I know
The more I fear the world
I want to believe in happy endings
That the life I live has meaning 

But maybe this pain has a purpose 
Maybe the scars I bare were worth it
In the midst of my hell 
I realized how far I fell
God please help me believe 
I'm begging for forgiveness 
I've given up on this dark road
I can't live this life alone

It's too easy to miss life's beauty in the midst of pain 
I gotta believe this isn't all for nothing 
This heart is crumbling in my chest
What happens when I lay to rest
