My only wish is that I was anything other than this
For everything I loved something still feels amiss
Late night! Eyes wide! All I do is reminisce
About April flowers and my only honest kiss.
Spent all night fulfilled by that bliss
White cloth held me over a blackened abyss
My face left warm by the touch of her lips
Her grace held me high but then it dropped me quick
Listen to this hymn:
I sang it to the ground and I felt the sound
The noise rattled the bones to which my soul is bound
Tired yet mighty and triumphantly resound
Took the devil out of this soul with that light I found
I endlessly sing for all the doubt around
My tired head and the hate that surrounds
Every thought I had but let’s let the LIGHT gain ground
And replace those wretched steeples with a flowery crown
I see and I see but I do not perceive
I felt the land but I do not understand
And some voice inside my head is getting stronger
It’s getting stronger and the light is shining longer
Every day it’s shining longer and I’m growing stronger
And the sound that fills these ears is singing louder
Throw me anywhere Lord.
In that old field.
