Beyond Light
Lose or win, just keep pushing the tin
Win or lose, all that matters in this life
Is our ability to choose
Because in a world full of boundaries and laws
All that’s truly free is the human spirit
For despite it’s many flaws
If you listen you can still hear it
And our heartbeat sounds out like thunder
But the pounding speaks only to our woes
For as much as we bury the pain asunder
In quiet times it shows
Lost is the growling of the lion
Like a guardian at the door
The flickering candle light that’s dying
With no surprise for what’s in store
And on a crowded city street
Where all who pass tread on about
No stranger will you meet
And no one will hear you shout
