Take away the shelter that I work hard to mind
Take away the lessons that I’ve learned over time
Rebuild it all again
Replant my hope and then
Reap all the flowers I can
I will rebuild
Take away the corners where I store my dreams
Take away the structure to bring me to my knees
Take away my pride, take away my family
Take away my peace like Job I shall believe
Rebuild it all again
Replant my hope and then
Reap all the flowers I can
I will rebuild
I will sing such songs that bring me
New beginnings and all the while I’ll
Shed my skin to find beneath two
Brilliant wings
Rebuild it all again
Replant my hope and then
Reap all the flowers I can
I will rebuild
