Begin
He says, "I'm broken and lonely"
But, he's taken all of me
Now, I'm ashes in his urn
He'll spread me like his victims
Toss me; Throw me to the wind
Oh, when
Oh, when
Can we begin
Somehow we only find the end
When can we begin
I'll admit, I'm blended
mixed in a place of confusion
Not sure, where I belong
Stuck in two dimensions
But, everything is colliding
Crashing at my feet
I don't know what's real
Oh, when
Oh, when
Can we begin
Somehow we only find the end
When can we begin
Am I breaking or building
So afraid I'm failing
This test
All I can do is go center
And grip onto Jesus
Oh, when
Oh, when
Can we begin
Somehow we only find the end
When can we begin
