Standing In The LightA Poem by JayJayBlueIt's about finding out the truth about someone or something, completely stripping away your preconceived notions of what they were
Where are we now?
In limbo between the fire and the light Everything we collected has collapsed Into the sea's greedy mouth We've lost all our memories to the night Now I feel we're digging an early grave Can we brush away the malice? Darkness descends on our early days Drinking from the fountain of youth With a poisoned chalice Now we're in the light Punching holes in the gates of heaven We can sing a different song Here's to us And the eternal fight Here we stand now In Eden but it turned out to be a sham We'll depart as traitors, as heretics Hell holds no more fears Heaven is nothing but a trap Let's cut to the distant future Can we just love and be alive? Understanding dawns for the first time Exposing everything that we knew Paradise is an empty lie Now we're in the light Punching holes in the gates of heaven We can sing a different song Here's to us And the eternal fight © 2014 JayJayBlue |
