No Safety Net

There's truth, you know

In the spaces between

If we aren't afraid to look 

Hope and need

Eating from the lack 

You think there's only one way

You hang on so tight 

But the letting go

That fuck-all terrifying free fall

No safety net 

That's the only way

The strength comes from inside 

Not in routine, safety, familiarity

Can't find it in the sky

And no, not in anyone's arms

Within you 

Get up and walk
