Song of Joy

The beholder's eye
Held beauty still
But it's not about taste
It's about fire and will
But when the ice and blood
Crept in my voice
I sang a song of joy
You see I'd finally solved
The mystery
When I was third in line
At the guillotine
And though my head was spared
I was still destroyed
So I sang a song of joy
I had lost my love
Of the infallible
And my iron grip
On the ungraspable
But faith is a fate
That you can't avoid
So I sang a song of joy
Like this-
I was Orpheus
then a wandering drunk
A hedonist
Then a laughing monk
Oh but now I'm the signal
And I'm the noise
And so I sing a song of joy
