Presently Forsaken

By Jeffrey D. Burnham


Verse 1:
Trap the sun in my eyes, shine through my brain,
Come sunlight and cauterize, the web of nerves and pain.
Through a hole in the sky, or black hole in space,
Something flips a switch, And steals my face.

CHORUS:
Someday I'D discover.
Why I'm here and shaken,
Left to bleed and burn,
Just presently forsaken.
But when I meet her,
And the sky scatters,
I'll never look back,
She's all that matters.


Verse 2:
No warning, it devours, all good vibes and reason,
Take refuge in madness, For a long, long season.
I'll climb to a mountaintop, And touch the living sky,
Pour out my desires, In one loud, piercing cry.

Repeat Chorus

Bridge:
Let the earth know,
Yea, I'm still here,
I'm still searching,
Like a restless pioneer.
Then the earth will shake,
The clouds will cover,
The lightning crack,
And I'll someday discover.

Repeat Chorus
