We have a lot of obstacles to overcome, I think it's a fucking mess and I wonder how it's all going to be fixed."
A New Beginning
Committee Of Thirteen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's a reason this all came about
No reprieve we're in or we're out
We're out
In time in time
What we have soon will fade
In life in life it happens that way
Then rise then rise
Realize realize
A new beginning
Your mind your mind
Will adjust to the change
In life in life it happens that way
In time in time
Accept all that remains
Realize realize
A new beginning
It's gone it's gone
It's taken me so long
We have to move on from this
It's failing we should quit
No reason to stand this
Release this
Should I speak louder?
You hear, you hear me now?
I demand we end this
This flesh can't hold it all

If it is not working, we should stop

You hear, you hear me now?
Do you understand me now?

I am insisting that we stop this
This flesh can't hold it all
Our physical bodies cannot handle everything
