From The Beautiful Light

Fixated on the gloom and darkened clouds

The lightning and thunder

The answers and thoughts I still wonder

Seems I fell in love with the hole I feel into

Wholly believing I’d be ready for the ladder

Not knowing it wouldn’t come sooner than when it absolutely had to arrive



Here I am now

Ready for a hand

Ready for a hand to reach out from the beautiful light



This piety I’ve foolishly mistaken for progress

As if a stone to push off of

As if a throne to stash a soul upon

But what a hypocritical belief that played out to be

Thinking public perception would change my heart

Thinking a higher regard would place me on some higher kind of ground



Here I am now

Ready for a hand

Ready for a hand to reach out from the beautiful light



So, all I can do now is earnestly hope and sincerely pray

If only I had known all along this cobblestone road

That that was all I ever needed to offer



So, here I am now

Here I am now

Ready to take hold
