On Reason and Passion

All my memories reign like the kings of stone

On the battlefield of love I have built my home

Watch my seasons roll by bear me up cut me down

In the distance they are healing casting shadows on the ground

Teach me to surrender to the dark

Tried to reason with my heart

Oh tell me what you really want

Every pretty picture came from colors once apart

Shot the arrow missed the mark

Oh tell me what you really want

Looking back upon the mountains that I build upon your name

Memory my greatest teacher after love and pain

As I am strained by growth I'm grateful for the night

I gaze in wonder at the highs and lows of life

Teach me to surrender to the dark

Tried to reason with my heart

Oh tell me what you really want

Every pretty picture came from colors once apart

Shot the arrow missed the mark

Oh tell me what you really want

Oh tell me what you really want
