Chapter 14: Face the End

Faced with his own death, Maeley’s father confesses his wrongdoings, creating a new beginning for his family.

Face the End

I can change, you can change

We all can change

Why wouldn’t we want to change

People are dying

The world is crying

Why wouldn’t we want to change

Turn and face the end

Oh then turn and start again

Change before it’s too late

Harmony will triumph over fear and hate

Truth will prevail

Wrongs be made right

Don’t fear the darkness

Embrace the light

The circle has no end

So turn and start again

Is it over, say it’s not over

This is painful

But don’t be afraid darling

Turn and face the end

Then start again

Start again

Listen to bridge our divide

Leaving old ways behind

We’ll survive if we unite, in the name of all life

Nature’s been patient and kind

Now we must open our eyes

We’re no longer blind

As we fall we learn to fly

Turn and face the end

Oh then turn and start again

Is it over, soon it will be over

But they won’t go down without a fight

We’ll halt the destruction

And make reparations

We will find our redemption

 I can see the light

Rising from this dark night

Oh turn and face the end

Oh then turn and start again

Turn and face the end

Oh then turn and start again

This is the ending, this is the end

This is the ending, this is the end

With every ending, we begin again

This is the ending

This is the end

So turn and face it

With love
