Lyrics

Out there,
Blink and you’ll miss it,
Is the promised land
(or at least somewhere different).
Pressed up to the glass to see it-
But i get distracted by my own reflection.
Like a live-wire, hope flickers
Against the pitch black
In rich contrast,
Hypnotized by the horizon,
I hold out my hand-
I just want to build some kind of bridge
To where the source material lives.
I want to build,
Brick by brick, until i’m changed-
For a minute i’ll be endless,
For a minute i’ll be brave.
For a minute i’ll make sense
Of all of my mistakes.
I’ve poured over the blueprints,
I’ve stuck to the plan.
Even a little ahead of schedule
But still missing parts of who i am.
My active imagination
Fills in the empty space-
The pencil reaches wide
But like anything held too tight,
It breaks.
I just want to make
Some kind of mark,
Permanent ink
Right from the start.
I want to draw,
Line by line,
Until i am changed-
I just want to build some kind of bridge
To where the source material lives.
I want to build,
Brick by brick, until i’m changed-
For a minute i’ll be endless.
For a minute i’ll be brave.
For a minute i’ll make sense
Of all of my mistakes
And for a minute i’ll be endless,
For a minute i’ll be home,
For a minute i’ll make something
To forever call my own.
I’ll always wrestle with patience-
The dissonance of purgatory-
But i’ll try to make use of the tension
In this first and second act of my story.
