Like a gunshot burning at night
Like a fire raging in your sight
It’s a sight you’ve never seen
Taking you somewhere you’ve never been
It’s Truth
Giving you hope to endure again
You desperately want to be a man
Like chlorphyll’d roots bursting green
But what comes before?
“Beauty” or “ugly” isn’t as how it makes you feel.
Like joyful tears soaked in a frown
Like young saplings burning down
But you can’t really see it
Because you don’t know to fear yet
The Truth
Animals have no reason to relent
Stealing your faith in a moment
Like knowing more than you admit
Like feeling peace when it’s quiet
