After The Storm

So many heartaches & a fallen star was missing on the way
You thought you could own me,
with just the right tune and a pretty thing to say
Pushing me on and on, covered with sweat, the roads keep playing
I couldn’t let go of you, and yet, I was saying:
Sorry I hurt you, but sometimes you need
to settle for the better hand and I
had to unease you, don’t take it too hard, I had to be looking
And there’s a wave that’s calling, playing me hard and loud
Tossing me about, my heart keeps cracking, it keeps on breaking apart
I see the rainbow, knocking at my window
standing in the way of the dark
playing hard to get with my heart
Walking in miracles
The arrows you poisoned were constantly missing my heart
My River was flowing
And yesterdays’ grace was heavily hid in the dark
A barefoot girl is walking
Soaking wet dress, mud painted face, and a trace
of long love-drunk nights
Holding wounded visions & withered flowers in her hand
After the dark storm comes the shattering calm
Crispy bright light shines on
it only cuts deeper in the sad eyes looking for home
Everyone wears the skin that one bears, or else, trying to get by
Cold bottled water, struggling accents and palaces cutting the sky
