Start Again
Ivan B
[Hook]
Pick it up, pick it up, and start again
You got a second chance, you could go home
Escape it all, it's just irrelevant
It's just medicine, it's just medicine
You could still be what you want to
What you said you were when I met you

[Verse 1]
Yeah. At times I don't know where I'm going
I'm stuck looking back at where I've been
All these friends who say they supported you
Suddenly vanished with the wind
When you got nothing to lose, and expected to lose
Who do you look to then?
When everybody wants something
Who can you really call a friend?
Late night stressing 'cause I'm guessing
Can happiness ever last
'Cause there's times, it's really here
But remains inside the past
I've given everything I got
But I always seem to crash
If life really gives you lessons
Then I'm failing the class
Damn, so let me start again
I've been losing this sight again
Been running close to empty
Don't think I can start this car again
It's hard to achieve, where no one sees you succeed
I sever ties with the closest ones who never believe
I've been broken down to pieces over a silly dream
Loved how my heart was ripped out for believing in me
Just a mic and a pen, and all the places I've been
I don't regret where I am
But can we start again
[Hook]
Pick it up, pick it all up, and start again
You got a second chance, you could go home
Escape it all, it's just irrelevant

[Verse 2]
What's meant to be isn't meant to be
Just everything we let happen
Been trapped inside our memories
The nights we stayed up laughing
I'm acting like I'm fine, as if none of this ever happened
Like my body shield with armor but inside I'm just collapsing
I know that you've moved on, and that's fine 'cause so have I
But sometimes you reminisce of the feelings we made alive
And all those moments where you call me up at three in the morning
Can't tell you why I'm not folding
Am I provoking emotions
Was I wrong to try
And save the thing I thought that we had
Or was I crazy to believe that we could piece it all back
Like broken mirrors, I don't think that we could see through the cracks
We could do this all again, I know, I take this all back
So tell me, was it worth it?
With all the lies and the games
All the fights and the name calling
I'm sorry to say, that these words aren't meant for you
But for me to ease the pain
'Cause sometimes you do feel better
When you walk in the rain
[Hook]
Pick it up, pick it all up, and start again
You got a second chance, you could go home
Escape it all, it's just irrelevant

[Verse 3]
Those moments when you realize all the friends that you lost
Pursuing happiness but losing it to feelings so lost
When you're over thinking every night and you just want it to stop
Endlessly falling forever, and I don't want to be cut
I know I said it was for the best and while I'm filled with regret
I've been losing pieces of myself, I don't know how much is left
I don't want to ever clean up this room, 'cause I'd be the only mess left
Yeah, I'm still cleaning up my thoughts
And you're the only thought left
Let's start again

[Outro]
It's just medicine, it's just medicine
You could still be what u want to
What you said you were
When I met you
