Piece By Piece

confused confusion
hazy eyed blind intrusion
wraps around my brain
hemmorhages then contusions
conclusions
there ain't no solutions
just illusions
black and white fusions
they just use us
to come back and abuse us
just useless
think we're useless
and clueless
well newsflash here's their backlash
twenty-one years down the drain
with one quick head bash
and FLASH
gone like lightning
and it's so frightening
that the hate is heightening
so uninviting
what with all of this fighting
just igniting
the shadow started inciting
peace is so flighting
hard to find the silver lining
but a light's still shining
redifining
and redesigning
and reassigning
all of our pining

and I can see peace just around the bend
if we all lend a hand
maybe we can mend
broken promises, broken dreams
dreams that were ripped at the seams
through the darkness
I can say, the light still gleams
positivity envelopes me
push away the demons and you'll see
you will see happiness like never before
if you're still not sure
it's too hard to ignore
push away the darkness and you'll see that your
mind is at ease and your mind is at peace
no more searchin through the dark just to make the pain cease
put your life back together piece by piece

looking for love in the wrong places
the wrong faces
on a need to know basis
just to rip away the laces
get in His good graces
feel His warm embraces
as the light traces
try to find him no matter what your pace is
He's tryin to show the way
if you're scared, well just pray
and know that He's with you every day
when he speaks just do your best to obey
if you slip up, just repent, you'll be okay
don't walk away
you'll learn nothin from strayin
ain't no way to repay him
I'm just sayin
if you're feeling weak, how bout tryin prayin

and I can see peace just around the bend
if we all lend a hand
maybe we can mend broken promises, broken dreams
dreams that were ripped at the seams
through the darkness
I can say, the light still gleams
positivity envelopes me
push away the demons and you'll see
you will see happiness like never before
if you're still not sure
it's too hard to ignore
push away the darkness and you'll see that your
mind is at ease and your mind is at peace
no more searchin through the dark just to make the pain cease
put your life back together piece by piece
