My Resolve

(album: Non-Secure Connection - 2020)

Ash plumes rise
In electrified skies
Incandescent light
Oh, with flash bolt eyes
And no one knows why
I've been drawn to this lie
I'm down when they're high
On a survival line

Oh, in my resolve I moved the rock
Maybe fall down trying
My ineptitude stares me down
In this space, I cower
And I try to stand above the fray
Stand apart, not by it
And I move on up above the hill
To maybe fully flower
I flower

Reach for the heights
And then throw on to the depths
I look for someone wise
With a soft caress
Will I find myself alone
Repeating numbing ties
You could help roll it up
'Cause I got no backup plan

Oh, in my resolve I moved the rock
Maybe fall down trying
My ineptitude stares me down
In this space, I cower
And I try to stand above the fray
Stand apart, not by it
And I move on up above the hill
To maybe fully flower
Ooh, I flower

Move on up and I roll back down
Crampons broke, no one hears my sound
Upward, downward for so long
In my resolve, I climb and climb, and I fall

In my resolve I moved the rock
Maybe fall down trying
My ineptitude stares me down
In this space, I cower
And I try to stand above the fray
Stand apart, not by it
And I move on up above the hill
To maybe fully flower

Ash plumes rise
In an electrified sky
An incandescent light
With flash bolt eyes
On a survival line
