Of No Concern

These memories that are contained
Will always lay close in my heart
Just want to have these times sustained
Don’t want to leave and never part
The constant viewing
Of your heart’s choosing
To just let go and leave us alone
Is too much for me
Can’t we just let it be…
The everlasting plan to see

The obstacles that slow us down…
They’re no concern
(They’re no concern)

The constant thought of leaving you,
Keeps eating me alive
(Keeps eating me alive)
Off to our little life path
Is equivalent to such a brutal death…
The constant viewing
Of your heart’s choosing
To just let go and leave us alone
Is too much for me
Can’t we just let it be…
The everlasting plan to see

The obstacles that slow us down
They’re no concern
(They’re no concern)
The everlasting thought of us to never part
Is of no concern
We will get through this
We will get through this

And I’ve been thinking about this
So now I have a really concrete grasp…
On this whole, big idea
And concluded that it’s such a big deal
All these thoughts and events we have…
It’s obvious, we can never leave…

The obstacles that slow us down
They’re no concern
(They’re no concern)
The everlasting thought of us to never part
Is of no concern
We will get through this
We will get through this

The obstacles that slow us down…
They’re no concern…

Pursuit of the Truth

Past all the worldly abominations
And plans for eternal domination
On earth, engulfed in total disarray
A plea comes for chaos, now in decay.
The pursuit of the truth stands long and stout
To relinquish the grasp of hatred's plan
To bring a halt to evil's plan, a drought.
Now the immaculate rise has began.
Jealousy, corruption, greed, pride, and lust
Are factors bringing about the demise
To this world. These sins create much disgust
Too much more of it, and hell wins its prize
Of taking superfluous groups of man,
And ruling them to final damnation.
Have no fear, a luminous light appears
Commencing to change the evil being's gears.
Humans, as nature, are this evil brute.
Trashing Endlessly to fight the darkness.
But the answer, the pursuit of the truth,
Will come to suppress it with much success.

Starlight

A star shining brightly like you
No one can light up a person’s mood
Quite like you can do.
Because all that happiness you include
In a person’s heart is an awesome feeling
That he gets it from you; he’s dealing
You, that has so many amazing features
One of God’s truly amazing creatures
You, I’m always willing to protect.
Just to let you know…
You brighten up my day and make it perfect.

Complex Simplicity

Going off on the entire world
This wrath will soon surely unfurl
Take a stab at people’s lives
Make them feel what it’s like to cry
Now you’ve gone and messed with it
Tortured it, oh bit by bit
Someday, you’ll feel that all those things done wrong…

Are part of a simple understanding
(Simple understanding)
Inside a complex mesh of hurtful situations
(Hurtful situations)
This complex simplicity, why’s it so hard.

To just come out and find the reason
That this entire time has been a horrible season
The gossiping and all the talk
The conversations never seem to lock…
All the false accusations
Are results of the situations
Someday, you’ll feel that all those things done wrong…

Who knows where this will lead
To some sort of rational deed
Or maybe the problem gets worse
Some sort of cynical curse
Just leave and let it be
Buried away; never to be seen

Blaze of Glory

Return to my head
This wonderful thought
Can now safely shed
This mask that hell brought
To cover up content feelings
That were shrouded in the dark
But now that mask, off, now on the brink
Of making and pronouncing on “comeback remark”

Within a blaze of glory
Comes an instant tale
Of an enchanted story
That will never fail
To tell the truth of being...
That being the clear seeing
That the dark cloud that shrouded love
Has gone away peacefully, like a dove

Comes to this now
The question of “How…”
“How long will this last?”
Will it go back like it was in the past,
Or will there be a new future
That will not be butchered
By the deceptions of jealously and envy
Within that blaze of glory?
