Where to Start

It starts from a distance
It starts with confusion
It starts with a story of good and bad
It starts from a young age fueled by a deep fear
So that I can't hear a word you say

You are a number lost in a news brief
You are a flower growing in concrete
Dark in the shadows a beautiful mess
Looking for grace, and looking for rest

I am a young girl, I do not know much
Fate had its way with me and so did love
I'm trying to pay back my stars, I'm learning each day
I gotta get out of my own way

It starts with a handshake, it starts with a full name
It starts with a hello, how are you
It comes from a deep place fueled by a strong heart
And the listening is where to start

We may speak a different tongue but one day there'll come a time
When all your pain and all your joy will become one with mine
And then the roof will start to cave and the walls will crumble down
And in that wreckage only is where we'll find solid ground

It starts from a distance
It starts with confusion
It starts with a hello, how are you
