A habit toward which my life's been disposed
How easy a beating heart can turn to stone
Becoming comfortable in time spent alone

Each day the sun deems to shine upon land
I wake in dank confusion; can't understand
Why some souls are granted a loving embrace
While others endlessly search for a single trace

Is it the beginnings from whence we started
Crossing bridges paved by those cold hearted
Some gifted with the ability to sense and know
With others destined to ignore a need to grow

One heart is granted the same as another
No difference defined be you sister or brother
We start the moment based on one shared plan
What divides is interference governed by man

Walking away to avoid the negativity created
By us trying to mingle lives obviously ill-fated
Memories falling in tears quickly fading away
Evaporating in steam with nothing left to say

Watch the moon grant its light to a falling star
Trod the earth as it cradles dreams from afar
Even as we are promises only souls can see
Some bear witness to what's not meant to be

Once more I've slammed a door tightly closed
A habit toward which my life's been disposed
How easy a beating heart can turn to stone
Becoming comfortable in time spent alone

Each day the sun deems to shine upon land
I wake in dank confusion; can't understand
Why some souls are granted a loving embrace
While others endlessly search for a single trace

Is it the beginnings from whence we started
Crossing bridges paved by those cold hearted
Some gifted with the ability to sense and know
With others destined to ignore a need to grow

One heart is granted the same as another
No difference defined be you sister or brother
We start the moment based on one shared plan
What divides is interference governed by man

Walking away to avoid the negativity created
By us trying to mingle lives obviously ill-fated
Memories falling in tears quickly fading away
Evaporating in steam with nothing left to say

Watch the moon grant its light to a falling star
Trod the earth as it cradles dreams from afar
Even as we are promises only souls can see
Some bear witness to what's not meant to be
