Back at the Start

[Verse 1]

There's secrets I don't tell ever to myself

I just keep moving

It's like working on a building with my eyes closed

Nothing's improving

[Verse 2]

Day after day I stood in my own way

In front of my own door

Some things push you round so far

Knock you down so hard

It's hard to get up anymore

[Chorus]

But here is the thing that I've known from the start

It don't mean a thing if you can't feel your heart

You might lose everything

Spend years in the dark but

It isn't the end you're just back at the start

[Verse 3]

All these endless skies of blue

Baby it's just you and all the umpires

Hoping nobody will notice

That you don't know what you'rе doing

Still you're getting tired

[Verse 4]

It's lonеly in the outfield

But the ball won't come to you

So you're safe for now

So you won't get to play but that's okay

Because you prayed to just get rained out

[Chorus]

Here is the thing that I've known from the start

It don't mean a thing if you can't feel your heart

You might lose everything

Spend years in the dark

But it isn't the end you're just back at the start

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 5]

Maybe it was all a dream but the lights are

Coming up and the rehearsal is over

Maybe nothing's as it seems

The ground is moving all the time

Just like you’re drunk but you're sober

[Verse 6]

Day after day you feel you let it slip away

But it's never very far

Don't wanna stand on ground that's shaking

But the earth is always quaking

Making buildings and tearing them apart

[Chorus]

But here is the thing that I've known from the start

It don't mean a thing if you can't feel your heart

You might lose everything

Spend years in the dark

But it isn't the end you're just back at the start

[Outro]

Back at the start

Back at the start

Back at the start
