MUSIC OF A THOUSAND SUNS


Music of a thousand suns
Moon glow caught in burlap cloth
Thread of gold tightly spun
Snapped up by the fates of wrath

The story of a billion souls
Camp side fire of dire delight
Spirit of herb and song ritual
In philosophers cave of stalagmite

Marble figure ignored by eye
In jungle box and concrete light
Slaves of dust and primitive cry
Bones work to sleep to unknown night

Shifting form of hollow mind
Buildings cease when building stops
Working flow comes to grind
When bottom judgment strikes the top

Rise to occasion for serious fall
An empty glory gained by grime
The lie of destiny, a fate for all
Resist the demonic sunshine

LET ME...

Let me break
Fall
Hurt
Cry
Scream…

Let me mourn
Struggle
Starve
Endure
Fail…

Let me ache
Lose
React
Challenge
Doubt…

So I may grow
So I may mature
So I may live
So I may overcome
