Course Correction

from Hearts In Need Of Repair by Sarah Morris

/

lyrics

It was paper thin if I ever had one at all
How am I supposed to hold on to an edge that small
At gravity’s insistence I took the path of least resistance
Opened my fingers and started falling

With no regard for where I was gonna land
I resigned myself to whatever lay in Destiny’s hand
No time for hesitation, I ignored my reservations
Opened my arms to make it look like flying

I’d been needing a course correction anyway
I’d been searching for a brand new set of words to say
And I’d been feeling so damn out of place in my own skin
Now seems like the perfect time to once again, begin

I might’ve hit bottom but I’m sure not staying down
Even if I take another moment here to stare up at these clouds
Every exhalation leads to a flash of inspiration
Opens my heart, so I can start moving

I’d been needing a course correction anyway
I’d been searching for a brand new set of words to say
And I’d been feeling so damn out of place in my own skin
Now seems like the perfect time to once again, begin

I’ve been long gone and I’ve been found.
So many second chances I’ve lost count.
The only way I know is to just keep trying.
set my sights on the horizon.

I’d been needing a course correction anyway
I’d been searching for a brand new set of words to say
And I’d been feeling so damn out of place in my own skin
Now seems like the perfect time to once again, begin
