Solace Found, Amends Left Deserted

Solace Found, Amends Left Deserted If I had the courage of my father I'd paint the sky and give my old wild young life another honest try No other force sends me down this darkened path of sadness, bitterness and empty forsaken wrath Living in a state of despair as big as a mountain if, if only bravery could I drink from a nearby fountain The world would suddenly cease to be sad and blue and I'd break these sad earthly chains just to get to you.. I simply do not try because I am so damn weak hurting alone fearing to openly and honestly speak These honest words you are reading quietly now courage came silently to me and I know not how.....
