was the beginning
so now what
looking behind
lost my mind
tangled in the grind
preoccupation and
mutation of that which i
lent to my concentration
start fresh
does it mesh
resolution
revolution
contusions
from banging my head against the wall
start
stop
fly high
then drop
i resolve
more like dissolve
lofty goals but
am i willing to put the coals
to my lips and confess that i failed
allowing my sin to be nailed
to a cross
so that my shame
may be lost
the bottom line
the fault is mine
start anew
so much to do
resolution
without revolution
leads to contusion
stop banging my head
against the wall
