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
