Potential (UnMixed) Version – Lyrics

~Music by Arianna of Sacred Visions Studio~

I think you've been looking for treasure
Answers among other things
Digging deep into hearts
In the light in the dark
And you're still no closer to it

You can paint your idea of perfection
Have collections and trophies to prove
But none of these scars
And these bandaged up hearts
Could ever be something to you...

But why do we come up with all these lies about ourselves?
Well you tell your son, it's the way it is
Cause it's the way it always was
So I'll kneel at the feet of each child that I meet
And pray that our mistakes can be pardoned
And innocence will find its way back home
Back home

I think I was looking for wisdom,
a salve for reclaiming my soul
For a truth we have all but forgotten
But is something we already know
So you grade your idea of potential
Than experiment till you have proof
But what if our scars and our bandaged up hearts
Lead the way to becoming anew?

But why do we come up with all these lies about ourselves?
Well you tell your son, it's the way it is
Cause it's the way it always was
So I'll kneel at the feet of each child that I meet
And pray that our mistakes can be pardoned
And innocence will find its way back home
Back home

And I know I can't hold it against you anymore
we’re all living the way everybody lived before
And I know I can't hold it against you anymore
we're all just living the way everybody lived before

I think you've been looking for treasure
Answers among other things
Digging deep into hearts
in the light in the dark
And you're still no closer to it…
