Human Touch (Song Response)

The-way-we build up high
With-out an-y touch

And-then-we crash back down
At-the-end of-the-rush

When-I look at you
I-see parts of-me

Once caught in-a-cage
Being giv-en re-lease

You-are
A gui-ding mir-ror

I-see
My-path de-li-vered

When-the eve-ning comes
Af-ter a-long day

And-the morn-ing dawn
When-it-all fades a-way

Your-voice it-gets in-side
Lifts-my wings in-a-rush

I ne-ver knew it-was-right
That-I-could feel soo-much!

And-when-the dark thoughts hit
And-I’ve run-out-of-time

I-turn-the light screen on
Op-en up my-mind

I-search-your voice for hope
Then-I find a-trace

Heav-en opens its-doors
My-life is gi-ven grace

Your-heart’s
Be-com-ing clear-er

Your-soul
Is cleans-ing pure

And-where I strug-gle
To be-lieve in-my-self

That-wall re-solves as if
It-were made of-silk

And-I-can see the path
Now draw-ing near

You-light-the way for-me
And-chase a-way all-the-fear

So-when-you doubt your self
Like-I of-ten do

And-see that bro-ken mirror
Star-ing back at-you

Just-take-a look in-side
And-you’ll see me-there

We-share-a love that-is-wild
Made-of myst-i-cal-air

You-are
A won-drous sing-er

In-spired
My-heart will shim-mer

(Thank you for all that you do, Alexander!)

Expansion

Great Achievements

It was easy to look around at other people
And marvel at how they had accomplished

The standard rote progression in careers
That led to their current succesful status

And to self disparage with chastisement
When comparing one’s innovative debris

Left in piles still needing categoric cleanup
After rockets have escaped gravy’s gripping

Callibrating propulsion to greater distances
Where most aim for thevmoon’s reliability.
