Kiss the Future
Embracing Tomorrow's PromiseLyrics
I know the cage from both sides now
I understand confinement or limitation from both perspectives.
As the handle breaks the gate swings wide
As a barrier is broken, the entrance widens.
Light, seeking light, doth light of light beguiled
Enlightenment, seeking illumination, can be deceived by its own radiance.
High above the fog upon a lake
Hovering above mist on a body of water.
I'm like a vulture, like a bird of prey
Comparing oneself to a scavenger or predator bird.
That is I see all from here to eternity
Observing everything from one's current vantage point.
Just as my heart drifts open, heart drips golden voices
Expressing vulnerability as the heart opens, emitting melodious sounds.
Just as my broken center lifts to kiss the future
Despite being damaged, the core rises to embrace the unknown future.
In the soft dark corners of the spell
In the hidden, mysterious corners of enchantment.
In the woven wires, the braids that bonded
Referring to interconnected threads and bonds.
That is, the warm serene veil of a folded heart
Describing the calm, peaceful cover of a folded or protected heart.
Riding currents in the sky
Traveling along air currents in the atmosphere.
Soaring high with wings in V
Soaring at great heights with outstretched wings forming a V shape.
East winds purify through to the other side
Symbolizing purification through winds moving from east to west.
Just as my heart drifts open, heart drips golden voices
Reiterating the emotional release, with the heart emitting golden voices.
Just as my broken center lifts to kiss the future
Even with a damaged core, embracing the future with a gesture of kissing.
