From Dust To Ashes: Diamond Eyes
Those diamonds - they shimmer anew
In your forest eyes...out of the blue...
Elegance and erosion collide in my cranium
Leaving me a missing, numb crumb, succumbing to the feeling of numb
From dust to ashes,
We see flashes
We see gashes
Excitement excels in my mindset,
Getting me an optimistic outlet
Leaving behind utter regret
Leaves of green sway
I'm happily fading today
Disappear the fear in my humbling heart,
Daring to shamefully tear me all apart
Desire is a blue, red and yellow flame
That burns on in my cranium and you're to blame
Candle-lights bled through the night, the night
Flickering off and on with all of its burning might
Give me a reason
I need a Spring season
To bring me to life
To eliminate all of the strife
From dust to ashes,
We flicker our eyelashes
It's sicker by the minute and how it lasts - taking out tribulation's tensions and its taunting trashes
I'm magnified by mesmerizing memories
Life is so brilliant and such a breeze at ease
Cease the moment
I'm heaven-sent
Set aside discouragement
Endorse your heart with encouragement
Shy away from resentment...
With epic discernment...
I need determination
I need His sensation
I need a destination
Away from my frustration
Scorch away the grief that is oh so brief
There, you'll find watery, radiant relief
Loveliness and joy is what I lack
I want that childlike happiness back
I yearn for it
I yearn for it
I yearn for it
I have learned about it
But, I have been having my childish fit...
It's legit that you made me feel a bit...of obedience, oh God of so much love and mercy I must admit
I have been feeling lament for no apparent reason
Just give me a summer season of cheer today...be my shining Sun
Let me be dust and ashes
Until negativity turns away and vanishes
Life is absolutely temporary
But, God's Kingdom Come immediately
On the contrary (it's not what I anticipated)
I feel extremely numb...
Fairly underestimated...feeling jaded...hated...
What have I become?
What have I become?
What...have..I...done?
Has these wars been won?
I've came a long way in my lifetime, in my lifetime
I have so much wisdom stored up in my brain, in my brain...I'm just a single grain...
It's time I let go and stop committing sin's crime
I have so many issues...be in my shoes and you'll look quite insane...am I truly sane?
Longevity and everlasting life is what I own
I don't care if you don't answer your phone
When I am with God, I am never, ever alone
So, don't pick a bone with me...the rest is unknown
I see myself as I really am
A broken-down, unstable dam
A mighty lost, little lamb
I hear myself as I walk around
I'm a valley, below the ground
A lot of mixed feelings per pound
