- Devolution of Misery -



Something in the stillness calls
Tendrils wrap my soul and draw
me over the walls and across the sea;
The sea I've hollowed from misery.

Misery just hold me.

Something in the stillness awakens
As I near the light that's shaken
me from my trance and from my fears;
The light that's washed away my tears.

Misery just love me.

I walk to the door, beneath the plaque;
The sign that reads, "There's no turning back."
And I open the door, despite the sign,
And everything freezes to a moment in time.

Misery just reach me.

I stand at a land far beyond measure;
A valley of peace that's beyond mortal treasure.
It's a place where all dreams take root and grow;
A place that erases the tears that you've known.

Misery just stand near me.

Something posesses me, though I know not why;
A joy springs in me from way down inside;
I laugh and I dance and I reach for the sun;
And I catch it and hold it and feel that I've won.

Misery just walk away.

I'm one with the sky and I'm one with the air;
Everything is ONE in this new atmosphere;
I reached the place that all men hope to find;
And now that I've found it, this new life is mine.

Misery just run from me.

I stand on a mountain, bejeweled with ice,
And stare down from above on this paradise;
I smile and a peace wells up from inside;
I've been purged of my fear and healed of my pride.

Misery, I've denied you.

I'm a new creation; past that holy door;
I'm a part of a heaven - there can be nothing more;
I stand under the sky, as the stars sing in tune;
And my soul is illumined by the white Harvest Moon.

Misery is no more.
