Analysis of Back On Track, Standing at the door
You wonder how you got here in this place,
And you feel like your running out of grace,
You feel like he doesnt love you anymore,
As your standing on the other side of the door,
You ask why won't you open it and take me back,
To place me back on the right track,
You feel so empty and dry,
You wonder why you should even try,
You still stand here praying that He'll be with you,
Cause right now thats all you know how to do,
You don't understand why He seems so far away,
You ask why won't you rescue me in this day,
Your almost done finished and fallen apart,
You wonder where do I begin, where do I start,
Finnally you realize He's trying to open the door up,
As you look at your hand trying to keep the door shut,
You can't take it anymore so you let the door go,
The moment you do He rips the door wide open,
He was always there ready to take you back,
Ready and willing to forgive you once again.
