lirik lagu the beautiful brand new – after the tragedy

after the tragedy – the beautiful brand new

try to compensate for lack of adequacy
recollecting that i’ve had enough
competence is lacking
coping mechanisms fail
when skepticism tears me up
(chorus:)
burning this life behaves
like an open wound
scar tissue escalates:
the beautiful brand new

desperation screams from leaving me completely
i’ve dismembered pity left for you
testify a turning; disconcerted yearning
father make me something you can use

(spoken:)
i’m the broken chain on a bike with no destination
in a town with no sidewalks theses street signs are
not kind.
the crosswalks are faded in time. i will not claim to
have
reached perfection, but will continue working to the
day
when i will be all that jesus christ saved me for
and wants me to be. this is what i will be. this is
who
i will be. forever.

(chorus)
now from this stage we’ll begin to burn brighter
you’ve lit the fuse
we’ll watch your eyes for reflections of fire
now we’ll thank-you
