Laying to rest the pain that's gone?

Mindlessly spinning round its sun
With just a human name and number
Say that some new thing has begun?

Can make for us a world of difference
As faith and hope are born again.

Step from the past and leave behind
Its disappointment, guilt, and grieving,
Seeking new paths, and sure to find.
