Steady

by Soulful Ensemble   Oct 24, 2008


I'm obsessed with my love for you
Unable to concentrate because of you.
Thank you for reawakening my dreaming soul
That was failing to keep me pleased anymore.

You're marvelous like marble walls
Sparking through the shiny halls
Of the white-stone building where rain doesn't fall
Because its protected by the God's of love.

I love you like black hair with my ears real open
Smothering the gentle fabric of your organic coffin.
I've got multiplication tables in my mind buried
Beaten into my heart so steady but I'm not really ready
To let them go and fly away so merry.

My smiles are real and my heart is steel
Indestructible like magic but really real.
But who really knows who is a fool down here
In the mortal earth where love is very near.

Textbooks and paper that turns to solid reels
That play in the movies and never fade to rusty steel;
A drum beat vibrates through my thin walls
And runs rapidly with a mighty sound that never halts;
These are things jealousy creates to try to pause
The true meaning of my lovely cause.

I'm growing old with a girl like you
And that's all I need for life to be true.
Hold my hand and squeeze it, too
So monotony flies away all blue
Never to be seen in those dark hues.

My camera wraps around me and records the sounds
That love has brought my heart to be around
When truth seeps into lives' short -lived moments
To show true light is real big and brightly opened.

I don't want to hear fake drum beats that come and go
To the tune of graveyard monsters that row the boat.
I'm yearning for a single touch by the finger tip that loads
A heart-shaped bullet in my heart that explodes.

Baby I've got no one else to hold me tight
to make the day roll into the empty night.
And even though my mind is real hazy
I still know I'm missing you like crazy.

Though my brain is spinning to thoughts of love
My heart is looking fast and really ready
Your hand squeezes my soul like a tight glove
As my heart becomes real solid steady.
