My Epic - Late Bloomer

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/2092939
Racing heartbeat, catching breath
"oh my G-d that was close!"
The adrenaline ebbs
When it's over, what comes next?
Black and blue, wrapped in gray
But still running, I'm still running with red

Holding pattern, fallow spell
When it's "never again" and not yet something else
Holy Spirit? phantom limb?
I don't know what it is, but it's moving again!
And it's hope against hope 'til you can't
Letting go, open hands
Waiting rooms with bated breath

I guess I've always been a late bloomer
Betting on the slow burn
Here in the dirt, it took a while
But when I felt thе light
I had nothing left to lose
When you'rе buried, it's the perfect time to
Bloom
Just bloom

If there's a light ahead I'm moving toward it
I can't go back I can only move forward
(always been a late bloomer)
If there's a light ahead I'm moving toward it
I can't go back I can only move forward
I keep an hourglass set on its side
So it's always right now and I'm always on time

Biography

edit bio
My Epic is a post-hardcore rock band from Charlotte, NC that was founded in 2005. Their sound ranges from the acoustic guitar picking with post-rock undertones that characterized their EP “Broken Voice” to the crashing, urgent, atmospheric sounds of full-lengths “Yet” and “Behold”. Another defining aspect of My Epic is lyricist and frontman Aaron Stone’s talent for penning deeply personal lyrics that often delve into the struggles with relating to God, ourselves, and others.
A self-described “band of Christians”, My Epic has stated that one of their main purposes in writing and playing music is creating what Stone calls “Thin Spaces” – places where listeners can connect to God in the most direct way and with the fewest distractions possible.
