Song 352

Only two weeks left on this grand ol' journey of music creation. 14 more songs to go. I'm already done in my mind. The path laid out before me. There is an endless well of creativity available to me, but the time is coming to narrow my focus. Polish all the brass and clean out the grooves. I have to hone the edge to razor sharp and decide where to swing the blade. But first, I'll write and record another 14 songs...

lyrics

Awake before the sunrise, the clouds refuse to part
There still lies a bitterness, somewhere in this heart
A frozen smile so stunning, devoid of all feeling
It's calling out to someone, not afraid of reeling

In the cold cold dark
This fire won't stay lit
A feeling that mistakes are hidden
In the ice, just under the surface

Asleep with the dawn, that sun won't blind my eyes
A love arrives, it takes me by surprise
A battle with those feelings, at a loss for what to say
I'm tired of illusions, they haunt me every day

In the cold cold dark
This fire won't stay lit
A feeling that mistakes are hidden
In the ice, just under the surface

I need a little help to get me through the world
I made for myself, I feel it deep down in my bones
And just under the surface

In the cold cold dark
This fire won't stay lit
A feeling that mistakes are hidden
In the ice, just under the surface
