about

Originally Tracked 12/21/20

lyrics

There has to be darkness
to appreciate the light
the very brightest star is
only seen at night
You have to have suffered
Winter's cold and gray
to fully feel the magic
of a warm Spring day

We're setting the stage
Not staring into the abyss
The coming of a bright new age
starts from a place like this

We need to feel desperate
to almost give up hope
Force ourselves to meditate
put our souls under microscope
Like the forest needs the fire
to burn away the dead
To make the changes we require
we have to clear our head

We cannot know now
if salvation comes
When or who or how
There is no trail of breadcrumbs
But the coming generation
should be a reinforcement
Should give us inspiration
to last the current moment
