Yesterday Must Die
Melissa Higgins
The heart stops
The body lets go
The ground's soft
Then the dirt's thrown
An entrance
To a new world
In an instant
We're in the circle
And something new and beautiful grows
But yesterday must die
Before tomorrow can be born
The last grasp
Is the strongest
Fingers clasped
All around it
The let go
Is the hardest
When you don't know
What comes next
But something new and beautiful grows
Yesterday must die
Before tomorrow can be born
From the dirt comes
Something brand new
From the ground up
Let it build you
So when the ending
It breaks you
Let the sadness
Transform you
And something new and beautiful grows
But yesterday must die
Before tomorrow can be born
And something new and beautiful grows
But yesterday must die
Yesterday must die
Yesterday must die
Yesterday must die
