Hard Pressed Emotion

Something free. Something Fickle

Our love it landed in the middle

In the shouts or in the quiet

The truth remained though we denied it

Time it came and time it went

Oh the ways that it was spent

On brunette hair and deep brown eyes

But they still can’t buy

My hard pressed emotion

My hard pressed emotion

Now it’s come. How I have drifted

From all the friends through which I sifted

Don’t understate my disregarding

I need the light to see the scarring

On the path that angels walk

Or the den where demons talk

Don’t know where my allegiance lies

But I’ll try and try for

A hard pressed emotion

A hard pressed emotion

Did the heavens roar with thunder?

When they watched me fall

In a legion without number

On my belly crawl

I see the shore. My final landing

The cherubim is proudly standing

The sword it glows a burning fire

Reads Eden holds no place for liars

To the East then I will go

And reap what I have sown

Till one day dust and bone remain

Cause I just can’t explain

A hard pressed emotion

A hard pressed emotion

A hard pressed emotion
