Since my heart and mind and guts intertwine
I can't get one past the other clean
Every thought pulls the body with it
Every feeling drags the mind downstream
Once you try to eat yourself from the inside out
Make it work somehow
Folded inward, pulled too tight
Still standing, don't ask how
Somehow I pull it back again
From the edge of losing everything
Breath between the seconds passing
Roots beneath the doubt
What comes first, the break or bend
What am I still waiting for
Then not only begin again
But somehow start to win
Not by force, not by escape
By staying in it, staying in
We can create our own way through
Always have, it's always been
One breath from giving in
Begin again and start to win
Would be foolish not to take the moment
Do what's possible while it's here
No excuses for the unstoppable
No pretending it's not near
We keep it up in spite of forces
We can't steer or override
That doesn't mean we lose our focus
Doesn't mean we close our eyes
I'm okay, I'm not upset
Coulda, woulda, shouldn't yet
We don't let the body fade
Or let the mind just drift away
Given chances, more than few
Opportunities to move
Still proceeding step by step
Trying counts, and that's enough
Not withering quietly
Not without at least the try
