One Drum


One

One Two

One Two Three

Heart beats quickly

To the rhythm of Life, there is only

One drum

 

Lighting the flames of mistakes

Only to be put out by the Love that was Found

Through the Lights, thought to be fake

The waves come up

Rolling with Uncertainty and Confusion

 

What can be done to get out of this illusion

 

Doors close but windows are opened

Opportunity to be taken with a treasure to obtain

A strong will, A strong faith, A strong mind

Turn windows once again to large gains

 

When the Sun does not shine, push through in the rain

 

Three,Two,One

Two,One

One

Heart beats Slowly

The Past is forgotten, new lands lie infront

 

To the rhythm of Life

There is only one Drum
