A Crack Of Thunder

Where to start
Lots changed since we last spoke
Estranged from myself & from my own folk
Screaming 'I am doing fine!' until my voice broke
Out of sight out of mind
I broke the mirrors & inhaled the smoke
Been afraid my whole life
Got this voice in my head saying 'You can't do it'
'You made a bad choice' saying 'You shouldn't pursue it'
'You will be destroyed belittled as the one who blew it'
Seeking refuge in movies, the heroes arch
But when the lights all dimmed I had to deal with the dark
That's both the dark within those who bite and bark
But life's not black and white with the contrast stark
Life's no script it can take a bad turn
When conflict has you going mad, learn
No handouts things have got be earned
Just be stern when you feel the burn

These masks that wear on a day to day
Reveal the Archetypes that we all portray
From the darkest ones I try to stay away
But man it takes one to know one that's what they say
We're all cowboys, cheats, and peeping toms
Mothers, fathers, daughters, sons
Enjoy the movie I'm glad you've come
Now close your eyes and enjoy the fun

This spell I'm under
A crack of thunder
I feel so distressed
Time we all confessed
This spell I'm under
A crack of thunder
