A Mystery of Mysteries

 

A mystery of mysteries 

this old life given to me 

why do I fight the foe?

within these veins that be?

 

once upon a time 

I was a glass of champagne 

now I see my reflection 

and all I see are stains? 

 

a mystery of mysteries 

this old life given to me 

what\'s it all about?

I hear my lonely soul cry and plea

 

broken by the ocean?

or the falling branch of a tree?

pushed over by the wind?

or drowning in the sea?

 

if we are all just a ship

passing through the night

then why do some get to sail

landing on shore in new light?

others get to sink

never knowing sunshine bright? 

 

the soul is a power?

a uniqueness that every human owns? 

so maybe just maybe 

sometimes our souls can be our foe?
