Musical meandering

I'm finding it hard to choose the right words recently. The ones I find seem sluggish and stale. Overused and ugly. But lyrics still get me... I still feel them running under my skin even when I'm so tightly wound that I feel like I could snap. I'm always grateful for the borrowed words and more easily captured emotions. They become more tangible. More manageable.

 

Tell me the words you long to hear
And I'll sing them loud and clear
Let me heal the wounds you've held on to for all these years
Break the cycle
Break the chains
'Cause love is louder than all your pain
Than all your pain
