It don't cease to amaze me
These games we play just to be lazy
Hide in these dystopian shadows
Opiate ladders ascending to crazy
Layers of consciousness peeling back like onion skins
So afraid of the very things that characterize the lies within
I summarize all these plot developments like writing score
Entwining elements like rope knots pulling shipwrecks into shore
And I know that buried treasure lies deep at the bottom
When you let go like trees lose their leaves in the autumn
People linking issues, grab them tissues, Venn diagrams
Overlapping insecurities, backed up like traffic jams
Taking it in. Slamming it down. Just like a shot that burns
And it's hard to choke down these bitter pills when it's not your turn.
But no matter how much it rains down, can't cloud me
Keep stepping love to all of you so loudly
I see a spark of hope, a lighthouse in the mist
And I'm feeling so light
And I know what really matters now
This life, this heart, these beautiful sounds
