Violet

Entangled in the twisted vines 
With all of life's shame left behind
In the vines
These withered branches animate 
Floral beauty incarnate

I am the shining Sun above
Though clouds would hide my depth of love 
High above
The light inside is piercing through
All around and down on you
Down on you

...The storm. The storm is raging.
Slowing, ever changing...
The sun, the light is coming...
Through darkness neverending
It seems to me...
That soon we'll see...
The world just as it's meant to be...
...Free

But now it's raining and I know you're happy
I can feel it when you smile about me
Keep smiling
If less is more then stay away
Unless you don't care what they say
Don't stay away

Then let the rainfall pour down on you
As the Sun will burn it off you 
The Sun inside you
I will rise and you will bloom...
The Violet growing in the gloom 
The Violet...
...Violet in bloom
