about

On the couch you rest after a battle of any kind ...

lyrics

when the dust has settled
the debris has been cleared away
the snake has shed its skin

when the storm has raged
as battles have raged
when fires have been burnt
to the ground

when clouds have fallen
and rain has rained
when the thunderstorm
has passed away

when the old has proven useless
and the new has not yet come to pass
what will emerge?

when the rain has rained
and the earth is dry no more
when life is still and waiting
what will come to pass?

what we have fed our souls on
and what we have set our minds to
will show
what we have based our lives on
will come to grow

then from our hearts
the naked truth will stand out
will that be enough
to grow on?
will we have enough
to show for?
will that be enough
to live by?

Inspiration is found in dreams , paintings, literature ('Werther' on THE COUCH), fairy tales ('The Snow Queen' on SHADES) and science fiction (ROFLORÉ and ODERAN). ... more
