Soul

What is heart mind and soul,
Light a match
Heart of coil
Do she even know
It burns,

Mind of confusion,
The battle of insurrection
Fears and Substitution
The wall of protection,

Listen to me,
Can you hear me,
I’m right here,
I’ve been here all along
Do she even know,

Cry
I cry,
Laugh
I laugh,
Rebel
I stand,
I’m right here
Did she even know,

The gift
The curse
Memories,
Did she even know,
But “if only” …

Now we know,
Life knows
Mirror always knew
Victor of the battle knows,
We all know of darkness and the soil
I knew she would remember me,

She knows,
Can’t cry
Can’t laugh
Can’t Rebel,
She knows,
Coil into ashes
Battle has been fought
And I’m meeting and leaving her,
Now she knows
I was there,
