The Healin'

Got to get to healin'

By KikiPublished 5 years ago 1 min read
The Healin'

Why we keep running down this road

Along the same splintered path

Twisted up wrath

Can’t survive on this empty heart

Got to find better places

And some kinder faces

Why we holding on so tight

No use for blame

Only feeds the flame

How we gonna get to healin’

Hanging on to these feelings

Oh, we gotta get to healin’

When did it get so dark

Both with a broken heart

Life tearing us apart

Can’t find no reason

Senseless bitterness

Wearing down our willingness

When we gonna learn

Promises broken

All those angry words spoken

How we gonna get to healin’

Hanging on to these feelings

Oh, we gotta get to healin’

How we gonna let the days go by

Listening to the hollow cry

Not believing in goodbye

Can’t live in this crowded solitude

Both feeling alone

Got to find our way home

How we gonna survive this storm

Unchain all the pain

Keep love sane

How we gonna get to healin’

Hanging on to these feelings

Oh, we gotta get to healin’

Oh, how we gonna get to healin’
