Chapter 7: Take it Back

from This Strange Confinement by Dede Booth

/

lyrics

Stuck and the water seems to take
a lap backwards,
but it's impossible to stop,
it has to keep on moving
no matter how it seems so still and damned,
no matter how hard it pushes back.

Move forward now,
make nothing become
the seeds we plant for the life we grow,
and take it back.
Take it back.

Rage, splash against the tide,
a ripple effect,
and when the waves come crashing through
it leaves a space for clarity,
a river wide enough to face its fears,
a river brave enough to go with the flow.

Move forward now,
make nothing become
the seeds we plant for the life we grow,
and take it back.
Take it back.

Living in balance of
a nightmare to a dream.
In search of middle ground
and moving toward what it means.

Move forward now,
make nothing become
the seeds we plant for the life we grow,
and take it back.
Take it back.
