Neon blots the dimming sky
Icy black, the hues take flight
The wind screams chaos in my ear
& I’ll be up next to all night
It’s nothing new once again
I contemplate the same old sin
There’s nothing different under heaven
Subtracting 70 x 7
Something’s wrong with the world today
Our morals lie in disarray
I cry w/ joy at His divine love
That pulls me close although I shove
While I’m strumming you may be humming
But won’t you listen to the words I sing
Just when you’re thinking that your soul is sinking
He’ll bear you up upon His wings
Stepping in from the lead curtain
Which winter has draped on the earth
I feel the fire on my skin
& the cleansing heat of my soul’s rebirth
