Element of You
The air use to be sour
And taste bitter
No way I was the same
It was time to get better
Water use to be muddy
And still be clear
Late August showed me
There is a worse fear
Fear use to be cold
turned my heart black
There is beauty in the dark
It can put life on track
Dirt use to be poor
Still a home is built
Wish you told me
So I didn't have guilt
Two souls use to be lost
Still searching for their light
Soul to soul they dance
Holding each other tight
