What the Soul Wants

When we speak we sing along We take this in turns But within this dreary song There is no rhythm And if I say that we are lost The pace will grow here The beat is set and you will go Why must the song become fear? If we find the perfect rhyme And if we follow The love can grow and in time The gaps aren’t hollow Within this place we are so free It’s where we live now The lies were never meant to be It takes away our souls If only life knew this law I know that it would smile Love is true and is meant for all And not just for a while So if life’s true and we’re alive Why don’t we try this? Life is short and soon we’ll die So why not live for bliss Just sing along and know you’re here The perfect song for all kind Just drift along and know what’s dear What counts is what’s inside So take what’s lost and grasp your thoughts Just see you’re so blind The perfect world cannot be taught But it’s what we will find It’s within all minds
