Project 86 twenty-three lyrics

Set out to find a love, to live a life

 To stay awake and clean and pure

 And never allow the burdens

 And excess of this place to harm you

 Like all the rest of those sent here before you

 But somehow, somewhere along the way

 A scar was sown inside of you

 And you thought it was an isolated thing until

 Life pushed on and you noticed that the scars were too many

 To count and let go because hate is part of you

 So what happened to the innocent face you once knew?

 Now it's just a reflection of this place

 And you pray and bed that someday you'd escape

 

 What if I told you that you didn't have to stay?

 What if I told you that peace is real?

 What if you heard that there was a better way?

 Would you come home if you knew the way?
