Get back to the center |
|
Where it all began |
|
The struggles of a burdened man |
|
Who clung to violence |
|
And transgressed |
|
Against the few who stayed |
|
The few that remained |
|
The few he didn't abandon |
|
Or push away as he left his home |
|
In search of fool's gold. |
|
He went west but longed for the east |
|
And he waged wars but he longed |
|
For the peace that never made |
|
Its way to ease his troubled heart |
|
I hope they all can see through |
|
The changing of the seasons |
|
We all blossom in spring |
|
And wither in winter |
|
When the fall strips you |
|
Of all your color |
|
What will you say as the cold |
|
Eats its way through your bones? |
|
When the ice covers you completely |
|
Completely drained of all hope |
|
As God as my witness I will survive |
|
To see the sun again |
|
And, wait for its light |
|
To bring its life back to my limbs |
|
I pray they all, see through the barren trees |
|
And the lifeless shapes that once were forests |
|
Once the life returns to their eyes |
