Alrighty, well just last night I finished this acoustic song that I pretty much started writing close to two years ago. Usually it doesn't hardly take anywhere close to two years to write a song, but this was off and on kind of work. I wrote the words back then along with the music, but I just didn't really like it. So every now and then I would pull it back out to see what I could do with it and I just never really had any ideas. Then last night I decided to give it another try, and i finally got it the way I think it is supposed to go. Some of the words and music changed some, but that's fine because no one had heard it yet anyways, and with the way I am about acoustic shows, I'll be surprised if anyone even hears it ever. But that is ok with me, because I basically just write these acoustic songs for me to be able to play just straight to God, one on one; however, if people want to listen along, then I'm usually ok with that as well. Anyways, here's the lyrics to the song.
The Metaphor
You are the waves of which I'm lost upon.
You are the chords that strum my life.
You are the voice that speaks to me.
You are love.
I am the lust of the eyes.
I am the deception that tells lies.
I am the thief that steals the innocence.
I am death.
You are the air within my lungs.
You are the governor of the skies.
You are the maker of worlds unknown.
You are love.
I am the selfishness of the wild.
I am the colors of strife.
I am the chaos that tears apart life.
But You are forgiveness of which I seek;
You are the life of which I need.
You restore me.
I am death.
You are love.
