Life Waters
What is this meaning that i have been hearing
The meaning of life in its wonders
The sea bubbles over
There seems to be no end
But the hopes of the many will always rise up forever
What is one man
When all of the world
great in its diversity and mass is but a small portion
of a greater plan
I've viewed nature in all of its beauty
None greater than the hibiscus
It does not waver like the great palm
But in one tree, can have a million different shades
Like a young child who's innocence is taken, many different lie within
It seems to me
The bigger the dream
The faster its sold
Visions of gold
cast aside by tears
Years of dreaming turn bitter cold
and quench the fires of my soul
The glowing coals within my heart
crumble and sputter beneath the flow
The springs of waters spew out hope
and I surrender to its flood
Water seems to be tumblind down, through the walls of my hurting face
but Thank the Gods
One can never quench the source
Of happiness and true good grace
For out of evil comes no good
and men will fall into their traps
and soon their plans will collapse
He who blames is often to blame
I've learnt this big disgrace
How can you not tell you're hurting me?
I'm entering grief and tied to a rock
Plummeting into a black sea of dispair
The waves came over me ever so swiftly
And I'm still in shock.
I must kindle my fire before times run out
