Powerlines
Once I followed your words like powerlines Energy of infinite will Chasing it I climbed high over peaks Down creases of green The treetops could not touch you then- only me
Now I just call and let it ring
I took a turn that felt wrong Left my studies on the table Joined a celebration raging In the black belly of Babylon Darkness into dawn, and all my work at restoration Was overturned, undermined I wonder why I never learn
Until I'm on the other side
Hey, I'm here calling your name I'm here losing a day to fear But I'm calling your name
If a color disappears- goes gray And stays that way for years And then one day, then one day Shows up to shine And paints a line between the laughter and the damage A little test of trust could earn the understanding And burn back to dust any evil we were planning A little test of trust
I just call and let it ring...
