Sometimes we tell the same old stories
to capture a life beyond these walls
to escape a life defined by categories
Pause, pause the future as memory stalls

To capture a life beyond these walls
we search for a broken benediction
we pause the future as memory stalls
Push, push away future valediction

We search for a broken benediction
to stave off uncharted territories
to push away our future valediction
Sometimes we tell the same old stories
