Heartsong

I hide, lost and absent
I tread numbered days
Years robbed of solace
Embraced in black and grays
I dine on the promise
Each word, every page
My bones bend in weakness
Each wall held to flame
And on that day
The thunder came
And like a flood
The bells rang
So I throw this bottle to the ocean
Filled with words just as lost as the tide
My heart stained each page in devotion
(Let it come what may)
And Where my heart may lead
My shadows keep me
And where my heartache lies
It's pedals feed me
And when my soul grows weak
I'll plant on both knees
I sealed the bottle tight
To sail on rough seas
Neither wind nor rain
Let it come what may
Can't take your place away
(Time can't have it all.)
"We know the air is unfit to breathe
And our food is unfit to eat
We sit watching our tvs
While some local news chapter
Tells us that today we had 15 homicides
And 63 violent crimes,
As if that's the way it's supposed to be
We know things are bad...
Worse than bad
They're crazy!
It's like everything everywhere is going crazy!
So we don't go out anymore
We sit in our house
And slowly the world we're living in
Is getting smaller
And all we say is "please
At least just leave us alone!"
Well I'm not going to leave you alone!
I want you to get mad!
On the blackest days
The storms may rage
I'll lift my voice and let my heart sing
Time can't have it all
No, time can't take it all
No, time won't take it all
No, I can't have it all
