Lay your beating heart by mine
Cross your fingers intertwine
Search your soul for hidden sign
Toss the straws and fall in line.
Rest hope’s head upon your bed
Have no tears left to be shed
Sleep not on this path we tread
Read the notions left unsaid.
When you tire keep it in
If you stop you won’t begin
Journey to yourself within
Find what’s needed to fit in.
When you’re wretched, when you’re sad
You’ll see men in same clothes clad
Happy leaving what they had
Someday you too will be glad.
Keep on trembling be exposed
Worry not the doors are closed
This is not what you supposed
Are your angels indisposed?
When your insides have turned bad
Whispered thoughts have made you mad
To that knowledge you can add
Knowing someday you’ll be glad.
