SOME JOY

I'M TRYING TO TURN THE SUN AROUND.

I'M CHIPPING AWAY THE MOUNTAIN.

I'M TURNING EACH STONE UPON THE GROUND,

TRYING TO FIND SOME JOY.

I'M PUSHING BACK WAVES ON THE OCEAN

AND CLIMBING A RAINBOWED SKY.

I'M DIVNG TOO DEEP IN EMOTION,

TRYING TO FIND SOME JOY.

I'M BUILDING ON DOUBT AND ILLUSION,

CEMENTING MY FAILURE WITH FEAR,

CREATING A WORLD OF CONFUSION,

TRYING TO FIND SOME JOY.

I'VE SADDLED MY DREAMS TO A COLD WIND

AND WORKED ALL MY HOPES TO THE BONE.

EXHAUSTED I QUIETLY LOOK WITHIN,

AND THERE, I FIND SOME JOY.
