Reaching to the warm bright force
A force that is my own life source
Inch by inch and over and across
Pulling to light no matter cost
A force that is my own life source
Inch by inch and over and across
Pulling to light no matter cost

Twisting and turning as I bend closer to light
But still the rays evade me as they remain in my sight
Like a flower on the windowsill in a dark dank room
The longer I’m free from you the closer I am to doom
But still the rays evade me as they remain in my sight
Like a flower on the windowsill in a dark dank room
The longer I’m free from you the closer I am to doom

With all the nutrients I have I grow stronger and taller
But despite my greatest efforts the distance is never any smaller
So I spread my green leaves wide as I bow beneath you
Hoping you will bless me with another glorious view
But despite my greatest efforts the distance is never any smaller
So I spread my green leaves wide as I bow beneath you
Hoping you will bless me with another glorious view

Tissue constrict and pull to the left
Then they tighten to the right keeping me bereft
You keep your tempting light elusive even as beg for your blessing
No matter how much I bend, grow and reach I fear I’ll shrivel still obsessing.
Then they tighten to the right keeping me bereft
You keep your tempting light elusive even as beg for your blessing
No matter how much I bend, grow and reach I fear I’ll shrivel still obsessing.
