Head Start Lyrics by Columbia Mills

A Safe Distance to Watch

2017

It shouldn’t end this way
Since they gave us a head start
But the only thing we started
Caused our heads to fall apart
Now we’re running back together
Back from swinging through those trees
And I promise I’ll do better
If this year’s better for me
And you’re rolling with the punches
And I’m swinging at thin air
And if you get what you deserve
I’m at the depths of what is fair
I can take the pain, I can take the pain
I can take the pain, I can take the pain
She said
"You’ve been running for water since the fire went out
You’ve been running for the door since you figured it out"
She said, "Take a step away now
Find a safe distance to watch
You can observe this self destruction
From our single bedded box"
And you’re rolling with the punches
And I’m swinging at thin air
And the weight comes down and it reminds us both
You were always there, I was only a ghost
There’s cracks in the system of all of our scenes
And over and over and over she screams
"I can take the pain, I can take the pain
I can take the pain, I can take the pain"
She said
"You’ve been running for water since the fire went out
You’ve been running for the door since you figured it out
You’ve been running into battle with your colours laid bare
You’ve been running into battle with your arms in the air
You’ve been singing about hope to whoever listens the most
You’ve been cursing my soul
I can take the pain and I’m always on your side"
