Old, new. Stop, go.
Turn here, turn around
What used to matter before
Is dead. Buried in the ground. 
Beauty, pain. Colour, stone. 
Buses intertwine with cars
Count to three and it's gone
You've forgotten who you are  
Stop, then continue to go
Start from the start
Intertwine the new and the old
To repair your broken heart.
