Renaissance of love and wisdom
Arise in the air
Springtime flowers bloom
To defeat despair

Yet here lies all
The secrets told
To live this season
With a spirit that is old

the past seems like yesterday
the mystic feelings
rising from deep within

but the past is the past
and we all know it won't last
not in our lifetime

if it is wrong to cling
to the things that are gone
than I assume the responsibility
of going back into the past
and get right along

I have not forgotten
The joy you once caused in my life
As each night rolls into the quiet town
I grasp on to the hope
That we will meet again soon

When melancholy erupts in my soul
The moon is all I can write about
It’s shining light
Gives me hope
Of a better life

An essence shows it is strong
even when it is wrong
but we just follow along
and pretend we know that it's alright

An essence shows it is alluring
even when it is boring
but we just follow along
and pretend we know best

Beware the truth that lies
Even beneath the deepest of eyes
Because there always rests an essence
One that you may not be able to hide

The unknown wraps around me
Like a fading mist
It brings me to the truths
That remain hidden

I can see so clearly
Yet see none other
Than the fading world
Unraveling its deepest secrets

stand there holding the flowers
looking out into the sunset to the side
while the camera points to you
standing there holding the flowers

so oblivious
so under control
taking wanderlust and passion
into your own hands
