Grinning
Fire within my soul
It’s not that beautiful
Fire within me…within me…
It won’t let me be free…
The demons below are grinning
The angels above of me are not sinning
The demons seem like they’re winning
But, in the end, who’s to say they’re winning?
Where have I been?
I see you and you grin
I have felt your sin…
Within…my soul…
Which is paper thin…
I see you and I win
Am I still a ten?
Captivity won’t let me be free
Remedies of happiness does though
I am a sparkling sea as can be
It empties my sadness to and fro…
The demons below are grinning
The angels above of me are not sinning
The demons seem like they’re winning
But, in the end, who’s to say they’re winning?
Where have I been?
I see you and you grin
I have felt your sin…
Within…my soul…
Which is paper thin…
I see you and I win
Am I still a ten?
I am spinning…
As I see you grinning…
I see you take wing…
Let’s see what happiness will bring…
I feel the bees’ sting…
You are and will always be my everything
I will graciously sing…
And do my thing
The demons below are grinning
The angels above of me are not sinning
The demons seem like they’re winning
But, in the end, who’s to say they’re winning?
Where have I been?
I see you and you grin
I have felt your sin…
Within…my soul…
Which is paper thin…
I see you and I win
Am I still a ten?
The demons below are grinning
The angels above of me are not sinning
The demons seem like they’re winning
But, in the end, who’s to say they’re winning?
Where have I been?
I see you and you grin
I have felt your sin…
Within…my soul…
Which is paper thin…
I see you and I win
Am I still a ten?
I’m possibly losing my mind today
I’m replaying the possibilities of yesterday
In my brain…in my brain…in my brain
I’m going insane on a different lane…
Fire within me…within me…
It won’t let me be free…
The demons below are grinning
But, the angels above will take wing
