The Beautiful Brand New

After The Tragedy - The Beautiful Brand New
 Try to compensate for lack of adequacy
 Recollecting that I've had enough
 Competence is lacking
 coping mechanisms fail
 when skepticism tears me up
 (Chorus:)
 Burning this life behaves
 Like an open wound
 Scar tissue escalates:
 the beautiful brand new
 Desperation screams from leaving me completely
 I've dismembered pity left for you
 Testify a turning; disconcerted yearning
 Father make me something you can use
 (Spoken:)
 I'm the broken chain on a bike with no destination
 In a town with no sidewalks theses street signs are
 not kind.
 The crosswalks are faded in time. I will not claim to
 have
 reached perfection, but will continue working to the
 day
 when I will be all that Jesus Christ saved me for
 and wants me to be. This is what I will be. This is
 who
 I will be. Forever.
 (Chorus)
 Now from this stage we'll begin to burn brighter
 You've lit the fuse
 We'll watch your eyes for reflections of fire
 Now we'll thank-you
