We Come Back Around.


Towards another place in time
(Forward to a place where we unwind)
A gap or a bridge, as yet undefined
(A distinct and unflinching light)
Surrenderer, your time is not mine
(Disbeliever, enduring the day)
A peace or a burden, clandestine
(War and the outcome, singing (reigning) praise)
Do you want to walk awhile and work it all out?
(Do you want to talk awhile and do away (with) without?)
Alone with your breath and your thoughts, and your doubts,
(Together, in one breath, in two thoughts, from our mouths)
Don’t shoulder the safety; the latch forgets to forgive
(Unholster it safely, a life which has yet to live)
And through promise and drink and in flight, we come back around.
(And through unlikeliness and pride)
We come back around.
