Lily of the Valley - Second Lyrics

Take a second look
Take a second breath
I swear i told you it's not bad as you said
I've been wasting my years
Sacrificing tears at the alter
That doesn't get farther away

You say you gave a second try
And now i wonder why
I look myself in the eye
Because i never tried
To fulfill my presence
Or worse, these things just happen

Look me in the eye
It's alright
You took your hits in stride

So remember it's not another life, it's yours
And you, you get to want it
And do just what you said
I just can't wait to get you out of my head

Between myself and who i am
And what that i might be
And sometimes
It gets hard to see

That it's all a little ugly sometimes
You never know quite why
But sometimes i find
No matter how far i climb

That the levee breaks
And the quiver shakes
And the arrow fired
Returns desire

Unlike anything you've ever seen before
And it gives you a chance to go on once more
And it goes away, like an illusion
And leaves you right there, in your confusion

Soon
You turn to find
The eye you turned to look outside
Has been outside all along
You were very strong
