Start Again

Nothings gonna change, if we only rearrange the furniture and call it home

And this will never sell, if we never say goodbye to it and start it all again

In the attic there were letters that I never should have read

There were poems and confessions about this, about that

And after it was over we were closer to insanity

Why didn’t we just fix it back then

Now our porch, in the backyard to block out all the noise

Keeps us safe from the villains we don’t know

And the hurt that we cause ’cause we never tried to be

The best friend that we will never be

And soon it will be the day when it’s all over

And the truth from a bumper sticker stings:

“Jesus, save us from your followers!”
