A song about overcoming depression
No Lyrics Left Unsung



I have traversed universes that I hope you never have to know

Whole worlds of burning brimstone and frozen coves

But I've escaped Destruction's everglades and have found Bliss's cascades

Now like a Monarch Butterfly I shall fly away

Today I've spoken with Fate, and this is what he has to say

"We are all nothing more than what we make"

So here I stand, unafraid, able to hear the song of the mermaids

For the first time, echoing across these amber plains


Forgive me, those I love, for all of the damage I've done

For all of the flawed drawings I have made over the eons

No more will I come undone or let my dreams fall into Elysium

I promise that from now on there will be no lyrics left unsung


Under a sky of falling satellites, I clutched a heart beaten by meteorites

Writing meaningless rhymes as the night played Luna's lullaby

But I have realized that I'm a pencil outline on time

So today I ride the chariot of life until I die

Today I've spoken with Fate, and this is what he has to say

"Don't worry, you have not a reason to be ashamed"

Today I howl with the white wolves, soar with the Hummingbirds

Away from the molten lava lakes of this Earth


Forgive me, those I love, for all of the damage I've done

For all of the flawed drawings I have made over the eons

No more will I come undone or let my dreams fall into Elysium

I promise that from now on there will be no lyrics left unsung


I've left the realm of silhouettes, the valley of string-less marionettes

Watch me run my hands through the }golden sand

Broken I'll never be again, this time Sol shall never dim

Today I sing a thousand hymns and let the light in

{{c:orange}size:5}As one story ends another begins


{{c:teal}c:teal}Forgive me, those I love, for all of the damage I've done

For all of the flawed drawings I have made over the eons

No more will I come undone or let my dreams fall into Elysium

I promise that from now on there will be no lyrics left unsung


This is my chance, I'm alive at last
