water is fluid, soft and yielding
but water will wear away rock
which is rigid and cannot yeild

as a rule
whatever is fluid, soft and yielding will
overcome whatever is rigid and hard
this is another paradox.  what is soft is strong

If you are lost you can look and you will find me

time after time

but i haven't forgotten my way home

the broken clock is a comfort
it helps me sleep tonight
maybe it can start tomorrow
from stealing all my time

and i am here still waiting
though i still have my doubts
i am damaged at best
as you've already figured out

i'm falling apart
i'm barely breathing
with a broken heart
that's still beating

in the pain
there is healing
in your name
i find meaning

so i'm holding on
i'm holding on
i'm holding on
i'm barely holding on to you

the broken locks were a warning
you got inside my head
i tried my best to be guarded
i'm an open book instead

and i still see your reflection
inside my eyes
that are looking for purpose
they're still looking for life

i'm falling apart
i'm barely breathing
with a broken heart
that's still beating

in the pain
is there healing
in the pain
i find healing

so i'm holding on
i'm holding on
i'm holding on
i'm barely holding on to you

i'm hanging on
another day
just to see what
you'll throw my way
i'm hanging on
to the words you say
you said that i will be okay

broken lights on the freeway
left me here alone
i may have lost my way now
but i haven't forgotten my way home

To make an end is to make a beginning
The end is where we start from.
