    The Wound And The Bow

    Verse 1
    Take one day at a time
    It's not a sprint, it's a marathon
    Although days pass quickly
    What was still is
    Remembering everything would be unbearable
    Remembering nothing is impossible
    Some thoughts are unforgettable
    They're embedded in the mind
    When they resurface in a conscious state
    Past becomes present

    Bridge 1
    Back, to the start, once again
    Trying, to learn how to live, in changing times

    Verse 2
    Once fear is realized
    It's difficult to be bold
    Surrendering is effortless
    The head and eyes face the ground
    If a challenge occurs and the result is a loss
    Then breaking down even further can destroy the soul
    A deterrent to overcoming despair
    Is knowing how harsh things can be
    It's as powerful as a raging storm
    Unforgiving, unrelenting

    Bridge 2
    Broken, always pierced, to the core
    Struggling, to forgive, in changing times

    Bridge 3
    Rarely alone, solitude is elusive
    Stifling, without mercy, in changing times
    Back, to the start, once again
    Broken, always pierced, to the core

    Chorus
    The wound and the bow
    What's in me and what you held
    The wound and the bow
    What surrounds me and what reigns supreme
    The wound and the bow
    What's hidden and never healed
    The wound and the bow
    What's constricting and what's oppressive
