The City's Lights
Dec. 31st, 2019 01:09 pmThis is something that you should remember,
Were you allowed to or will you dismember,
The sins of the past or the burdens of now,
The ways you were broken when you took your bow,
Don't look away from the world of today,
Never back down and don't let yourself sway,
Hold fast your heart and keep burning your flame,
For nothing in life that is lost can be gained,
In absence of memory, hold now this moment,
Forgetting the past and acquiring a movement,
You've all you once were and all you are here,
Worth more to the world than bittersweet fear,
The hour's upon us to break down a wall,
Knowing it's not to be stopped once it falls,
If all there is left the nothing we want,
Then there's everything left to be wished for and saught,
Your future arrives in another few hours,
This day now half through you still hold all the power,
Become something greater, be better than you,
Be honest and beautiful, be there and be true
Were you allowed to or will you dismember,
The sins of the past or the burdens of now,
The ways you were broken when you took your bow,
Don't look away from the world of today,
Never back down and don't let yourself sway,
Hold fast your heart and keep burning your flame,
For nothing in life that is lost can be gained,
In absence of memory, hold now this moment,
Forgetting the past and acquiring a movement,
You've all you once were and all you are here,
Worth more to the world than bittersweet fear,
The hour's upon us to break down a wall,
Knowing it's not to be stopped once it falls,
If all there is left the nothing we want,
Then there's everything left to be wished for and saught,
Your future arrives in another few hours,
This day now half through you still hold all the power,
Become something greater, be better than you,
Be honest and beautiful, be there and be true
