Take To Begin – The Band Of Heathens

In the morning I awoke a victim to the joke
The promise we were given was laid to waste and rust
And the trust that we had earned, scattered ashes, black and burned
A remnant of our former selves the slate was not wiped clean

What will it take for you to begin?
To search for a reason not a means to an end
What will it take to not break it all over and over again
What will it take to Begin?

The tide turned in my brain flooding every single vein
The joker reigns when hope is slain, and fear becomes the king
Deep inside the halls of doubt voices crying to get out
Lost inside confusion, left with only hate

What will it take for you to begin?
To Search for a reason not a means to an end
What will it take to not break it all over and over again
What will it take to Begin?

Shared a vision for the dream
Flew the colors for the team
But it seems we can’t find freedom in the dream that we once shared
Wish the children all the best hope they figure out the rest

Poisoned well, stolen water
Banning books, damaged daughters
Endless greed, alleged alters
Sending wisemen to the slaughter

What will it take for you to begin?
To Search for a reason not a means to an end
What will it take to not break it all over and over again
What will it take to Begin?
What will it take to Begin?
What will it take to Begin?
What will it take to Begin?
