lyrics

The rainbow ran red again…even darker than the shifting light.
Bitterness implodes into resplendence and anger spreads like blight.
The sun can shine; the sky can bloom, like the effervescence of the room.
Yet tired eyes and a restless mind breathe fire; feeding off of gloom.

And it consumes the room.

Colloquial cat-and-mouse dash accents to every shadow in the house.
Secrets among the roses.
Twenty-first centurion Faust spitting decades of redemptive prose, monitoring every dose.
Make the party proud.

It gets so loud.

If I and I could decide, we’d find the strength to divide.

Internal monologues louder than bombs.
Lost far and wide amongst the prongs.
Like turpentine amongst the throngs, the bitter pill hath spread.
Tiny seeds of doubt are fine just as long as the souls around are blind
And hey, as long as there’s always a mountain to climb,
Try not to hang your head…

(OH!) Acceptance.
That is the first step.
Though the wood has all but worn away and only piano keys reside in its wake.
Ginger steps bring inevitable racket as the ascent is timidly made.
Ahead.
Is the journey not often granted and a secret that is not well kept…
Acceptance.
Not simply of self, but of whole.
Like the completion of a novel.
Validation of an idea.
A marriage between tissue and soul.
A common ground to which your roots can grow on.
One simple step.
One simple step.
One simple step…
To eunoia.
