lyrics

there goes another one today
fading light, cold divide
pressing against the window frame
fractured in beads upon the ground
colored lines trace designs
this shag carpet can’t even shame
why can’t i see beauty in everything?

i will try to keep these thoughts in mind
but i’m more selfish than i like to believe
ideals fall in vain
will these questions bring on change
or will they haunt me?

promise raised to the mountainside
crown of stone, sky alone
ancient witnesses all around
done in words from another time
the feeling grows with the lines i know
some things just happen easily
why does Truth come so slow to me?

i will try to keep these thoughts in mind
but i’m more selfish than i like to believe
ideals fall in vain
will these questions bring on change
or will they haunt me?
