That which we envision
To be Damascus steel
Given one hard blow
Fragile as porcelain
Everyone we dearly need
To remain right by our side
Hanging by a slender thread
One desperate beat from the end
Everything that we conceive
We understand we believe
One sharp shock from deepest doubt
Our temple walls come crumbling down
We insist we see it there
Our eyes do not deceive
We close our eyes it disappears
Left with nothing but our fears
Life colors our world the deepest shade of black
What can we do to make our world a lighter shade of blue
Cling to hope
Cling to tears
Cling to greed
Cling to fear
Cling to now
Cling to then
Cling to God
Cling to the end
Cling to friends
Cling to pain
Cling to joy
Cling to anything to feel again
Anything to save us from ourselves
What can we do to make our world a lighter shade of blue?
