Misplaced Restless Souls

Misplaced Restless Souls

Restless souls know no place to go

Except to follow the rhythm

Of their beating hearts

I think I can lead you

to a place you never knew existed

We both can get lifted

Are you ready

Are you down

The winds might get heavy

And we may burn out

It’s the risk

Can’t gain till you lose

Are you willing

I’ve played tug of war

With who I thought I should be

I’m saying no more

Twists and turns of journeys

I couldn’t dictate

I learned to let go

You feeling like what’s the use

Clinging to safety net

Scared to breathe for once

What if you could live for once

Feed your hope for better tomorrows

And not be alone 

Just trust me when I say

I’ve got you here on out

Not leaving you

No abandoning you now

I promise

I’ll be honest

And we can take on this desert town
