Burn

Burn it until we can start anew

By Hannah AlexanderPublished about a year ago 1 min read

I want to help
I want to heal
I want to aid
I want to avail
I want to give
I want to learn
I want to seek
I want to ....burn

Burn all the trials and troubles around
Burn all of our demons into the ground
Burn all thoughts, invents our world unjust
Burn it to ashes, burn it to dust

Bring on the absolution
Unhand the new world vision
Retrieve a new sense of peace
Never to end, never to cease

So say the prophets of old
It was through them Jehovah told
Times of a restoration
Giving us a horn of salvation

Soon the time will come where we will see
Justice and peace and unity
No oppression or greed
This is His promise, a righteous guarantee

Bring on the absolution
Unhand the new world vision
Retrieve a new sense of peace
Never to end, never to cease

Bandage the broken hearted
Unbind the ties that hold us down
Repair and mend burnt bridges, seas uncharted
Nurture our future, our past to drown

I want to live
I want to feel
I want to care
I want to hold
I want to know
I want to learn
I want to seek
I want to
