Lyrics Forgive Durden

Forgive Durden

Life is Looking Up

Could this be the day I've waited for

When all my hard work doesn't go ignored?

Maybe she was right, the will realize

I can change the world open us their eyes

They know I am more than some eager blood

Not some average bones, I believe in love

I just want to prove I deserve this gift

I will change the world, maybe this is it

I can see it now, all the colors smear

Up and down the page, but the shapes are there

I will build the lamps in the reverie

Then they'll understand this was meant for me

This is my fate

I can almost hear 'em say

Let the lamps shine

Let em burn so bright

Open all our eyes

Shower us in light

Let the lamps shine

Let em burn so bright

Set the sky ablaze

Fill the night with paint

Smother all the shade flood it through my blood

Breathe it through my lungs

Give us all your love

They know I am more than some eager blood

Not some average bones, I believe in love

I just want to prove I deserve this gift

I will change the world, maybe this is it

I can see it now floating like a dream

Right above my head, perfect symmetry

Lives in harmony, I can see his face

When he sees the lamps, I can hear 'em say

Let the lamps shine

Let em burn so bright

Open all our eyes

Shower us in light

Let the lamps shine

Let em burn so bright

Set the sky ablaze

Fill the night with paint

Smother all the shade flood it through my blood

Breathe it through my lungs

Give us all your love

Dream with your eyes closed

Try and pluck the pearls from your bones

All the plans pirouette right through my mind become set

The lines become definite, glowing hues fill this vignette

Tall and proud, the lamps will stand built from these two very hands

No one will be able to deny my skill our love for you

Dream with your eyes closed

Try and pluck the pearls from your bones

Let the lamps shine

Open all our eyes

Shower us in light

Let the lamps shine

Let em burn so bright

Set the sky ablaze

Fill the night with paint

Smother all the shade flood it through my blood

Breathe it through my lungs

Give us all your love

You can't change me

You can't hide me

"The vision of the world had been realized

But the sculpture of the Earth was looked upon by jealous eyes

Ahrima refused to relent, he demanded to be heard

'Let my unique deft hands be known' he asserted

But even this brash avowel was met in return by no mouth full

O simply just smiled

So defeated and galled, Ahrima headed for the darkness

No one seemed to understand

Only the shadows would hearken

He sat in peace but on his shoulder, at rest,

Perched a dainty brownish spider named Barayas"
