disparate from GRAVEYARD SHIFT by Winter Rowan

made up of disparate parts; why can’t I win?
everybody on their marks? get ready for sin

SO MANY YEARS I TOLD MYSELF I WASN'T ALLOWED
TO HAVE FREEDOM OR COMFORT
I TOLD MYSELF, "YOU TOOK A VOW"
WHEN I START TO GET USED TO THAT
MY CONSTANT IS TAKEN AWAY
SO, HOW DO I START AGAIN NOW?
TELL ME HOW DO I START AGAIN NOW?

make a new beginning; just let it in
don’t think twice about it; time to begin

SO MANY YEARS I TOLD MYSELF I WASN'T ALLOWED
TO TAKE WHAT I WANTED
I TOLD MYSELF, "YOU TOOK A VOW"
NOW I KNOW I'VE GOT A SOUL TO FEED
BUT I'M LOST IN THE CROWD
SO, HOW DO I START AGAIN NOW?
TELL ME HOW DO I START AGAIN NOW?

I know I flirted with concepts
and brought myself close to the edge
but I never crossed that line
I never stepped off that ledge

all these conversations with god on my mind
now I’m a contradiction
will the vessel fill back up with time?
will I stay empty all the time?
how do I start again if I’m disparate?
