You told me you were heartless
But I didn't believe you
Because even though I never felt your heart beat
I heard it
Every time I laid my head on your chest.
But I believe you now
I realize now it was not your heart I was hearing
It was just your demons banging around.

A river flows beside a tree
Which grows upon an earthy hill
Both strength and beauty can be seen
No need to hide
No want for veil
And the word of God flows underneath
As the river runs
To foster all which growth entails
So enter in lovers embrace
And share in the water
Drink it deep
Both when it flows and when it speaks
But especially when it stands still

You can't play a game of matters of the heart,
If your heart isn't available to be had.

I haven't felt at home since then
Since I've woken up
No dream can last
All nights must pass
And rise again

But my realization hasn't changed
The way things are or could've been

Look back and see the same old day
Not as it was, but as it is

No amount of time can change the fact
Or the truth therein

That we are searching, ever searched
Alive within for but a short time
