How is that music can soothe and move me so?
Life is so intense, bitter, brief
I struggle against all this hatred and ignorance
I become so vexed, so angry at the world
And at the drop of a hat, how quick and how that
I become entranced by the sound of a song
the beat of a heart, a rhythm not mine
that I take to my own
It calms and it gives me hope
that I may rest and let drain all the
vitriol of the world
and I can lie down to sleep to face another day
