Symbolically

Searching for the answers of your everyday

Looking for a hope to light your way

A dream, maybe, as a guiding light

A color of the rainbow

Flashes of life longing to be seen

As they wander through the night

A thrill of hope to touch your soul

That has been a dark inescapable hole

A tear, it seems, has been shed for you

A light shining in the darkness

Flashes of life longing to be seen

Your soul transparent, it shines through

Symbolically, what does it mean?

Is a tree ever just a tree?

Is an action ever what it seems?

Is this life but a dream?

All the colours melt into one

Absorbing what they can from the light of the sun

A light that shines upon this darkened place

Once unable to pierce

Flashes of life longing to be seen

Words are granted to state your case

Symbolically, what does it mean?

Is a tree ever just a tree?

Is an action ever what it seems?

Is this life but a dream?

A voice calls you on into this wilderness

Your feet bludgeoned by the rocks

Your soul calls out its hopelessness

Falling ever farther into the night

Falling into the darkness…

A hand is extended, a story is told

As the words are spoken the truth unfolds

A star will shine upon your darkened face

Listening as you state your case

Flashes of life are seen

Enfolded in a state of grace

Symbolically, what does it mean?

Is a tree ever just a tree?

Is an action ever what it seems?

Is this life but a dream?

Because that is what it seems to me
