Last Time (to Start Again)

This was supposed to be a fast song
   But it turned out slow
I had a lot of energy
   So where did it go
The sun is shining
   But I’m covered in snow
      Falling down

This was supposed to be uplifing
   Instead it knocked me down
My motives were so sunny
   Then reality came around
If you’re honest in your searching
   You can’t control what gets found
      Look around

This could be the last time
   This could be the last time
      This could be the last time
         to start again

This was supposed to be a true song
   But what it is it is
The rules lay scattered
   There won’t be quiz
Intentions never see the light of day
   They only muddy up your point of view

This might be the last time
   This might be the last time
      This might be the last time
         to start again

This was supposed to be the ending
   But it starts again

This will be the last time
   This will be the last time
      This will be the last time
         to start again
