With the knowledge of celebration
I gaze into night skies
Slipping into a vast black nothingness
But there are no stars which sparkle in me
As I wonder how a life
Which began so centered
And carried such conviction
Sailing towards success and freedom
Finds itself scattered like drift wood
Across many shores
Deep inside my being lives
A brave young Knight , on a quest
As he strides with purpose
Of to slay the Red Dragon
That hoards boundless wealth
Back on the outside I puff in displeasure
As i guess its a masked ball for me
As I placing a smile on my gristly face
And wear my orange chorus party coat
The young Knight reaches the
Great Red Dragon's kingdom
And finds him deep in his lair
With beautiful bright red scales that glitter
As he restlessly guards his huge treasure
Back at the party I force my demeanor
But like a iron breast plate my heart
Weighs heavy underneath my
Orange chorus coat
As I am split in two
In the lair the dragon breaths out
A both tantalizing and ferocious firey focus
Warning the Knight well away
As the dragon holds on and holds on
As he knows the world seeks his treasure
But deep down , he is divided as an
Imprisoned part longs for the sky
And to stretch his wings
Back at the party I am an onlooker
Feeling numb and divided as
Though my past had placed
One of my feet in the grave
At the lair the Dragon remains
Torn between his treasure and the sky
But in a moment of madness
He takes flight leaving his treasure behind
At the party i accidentally catch a young ladies eye
And for a moment my stone heart is pliable like butter
As I feel a new relaxed rigor in my stride
The dragon looks down and see's his treasure disappear
And feels naked like they were ripping his cloths away
But carries on flying high searching the sky
Back at the party , I am totally let go
As my heavy heart drops away
And I dissolve into my ORANGE CHORUS COAT
I become the very essence of party
I feel light as through the wind blew
Through me and I am lifted
Sparkling wine and stars shine
Sailing through the skies the
RED DRAGON returns to his castle
To find an amazing surprise
As all the people through out the land
Now worship him and have put on a
Celebration and great feast in his honor
And all promise to forever share their bounty
And bring many gifts to the
GREAT RED DRAGON
Back at the party I gain a new lease of life
As though I had gained great red wings
As I feel the space of my inner being fly
