One step forward 
Takes me two steps back 
I look to the sky for answers, knowing that 
I want to remember how I used to feel 
But I'm just too scared of what it might reveal. 

It always catches me when I need it least 
It seems I'm never to escape the beast. 

A moving target 
I can't get away from the past and 
It's still hurting 
It won't heal. It's too deep. It's just too much to settle 
Before I can let myself sleep 
A kind of peace of mind 
Accept the life that's mine 

All this anger and misunderstanding 
Can't we respect our differences? 
No-one's the same 
And we're still connected by the history that ties us 
Why does someone have to take the blame? 

It hits the hardest when it's aimed at you 
Forgive them for they don't know what they do. 

A moving target 
I can't get away from the past and 
It's still hurting 
It won't heal. It's too deep. It's just too much to settle 
Before I can let myself sleep 
A kind of peace of mind 
Accept the life that's mine 

Stop shutting out my light 
There is no wrong there is no right 

A moving target 
I can't get away from the past and 
It's still hurting 
It won't heal. It's too deep. It's just too much to settle 
Before I can let myself sleep 
A kind of peace of mind 
Accept the life that's mine 

Repeat...
