Say Nothing and Run Free

from Forward by Beth Patterson

lyrics

Darkening sky
Sun and moon exchange a passing glance
Thoughts asunder, twinkling fires as they fly
Catch them all
Gather up into a soul jar
They light the way and clarify...

An open road
My chance at last
To rise above
But I’m falling fast
Still I will say nothing and run free
Until the scars no longer disfigure me

Safe in my head
Protective bubble, thin cocoon of hope
A room of one’s own brings the wolf right to my door
Who’s afraid?
It’s only blind anticipation
A signal sent to something more...

An open road
My chance at last
To rise above
But I’m falling fast
Still I will say nothing and run free
Until the cards reveal my place to be

Slowly it dawns
The sharpest blade would never hurt me now
I feel the earth tilt, and I laugh at fading stars
The world still spins
So build a loop and throw me in
It’s worth the journey and the scars...

An open road
My chance at last
To rise above
But I’m falling fast
Still I will say nothing and run free
Until the gods decide to favor me
