Begin Again Shinedown

[Verse 1]
Welcome friends, to seconds lost and starts that won't begin
To twisted eyes that see inside, rules that always bend
A simple task, a see through mask, that questions where and why
We shed our skin, to occupy, and keep our peace of mind

[Pre-Chorus]
Bring only what you need to survive

[Chorus]
They burned an image from lines on my face
They stole it from the pages that kept my place
I stand on the outside, would die to get in
I'd crawl inside just to begin again

[Verse 2]
So unfair, this broken smile that keeps us all aware
Of wishful thoughts, and scenes we lost, and times we'll never share
I'll ask you now, to show me how, to fill the circle in
What tells us all, there is no fall, and the story never ends

[Pre-Chorus]
Bring only what you need to survive

[Chorus]
They burned an image from lines on my face
They stole it from the pages that kept my place
I stand on the outside, would die to get in
I'd crawl inside just to begin again
