Forsaken Again

I've come up to meet you
And to tell you my name
As hard as it's been
I'm still hoping
That you do the same

We've still got hours
We've still got time to waste
Come, breathe it
And feel it
And paste it on your golden face

I'll climb to the mountains
I'll build a nest in the trees
I'll fight my own battles
I'll sow my own seeds

And you'll realize
When you look to the skies
And the rain
That you've been mistaken
And I've been
Forsaken again
And again
Again and again

And you said
"Just get out
Just get out of here
You've been tied for so long now
So that's what you want,
Don't you dear?
So wipe out your footprints
And tear down the wall
Hide your fusses 'cause
They don't mean too much
At all
Not too much at all

So I'll take what's been given
I'll read what's been named
I'll pull out the fences
I'll blow out the flames

Then you'll see clearly
With nothing to hamper your aim
That you've been mistaken
And I've been
Forsaken again
And again
Again and again

And you said
"Just get out
Just get out of here
The same voice
That spoke for the charge
Shall speak for the tears
So take out your baggage
And fix up your hair
Out the door
Cause know I ain't got time
To spare, no
Got no time to spare"
