Looking Glass
by Merisan

Tired and weary
striving to grow
a soul’s reward
are the seeds that we sow
tethered together
slipping like sand
get in the life boat
I’ll lend you a hand

and I won’t let go
no I won’t let go
until we both reach
the safety of shore
with both feet on
the ground

Oh wicked wilderness
calling us back
can we survive this
modern attack?
I know that I am
where I’m s’posed to be
but pavement and power lines
are all I can see

and I won’t let go
no I won’t let go
until we both find
the safety of shore
with both feet on
the ground

From the looking glass
I can see
all the things that we want to be
and the pages of
our history

and I won’t let go
no I won’t let go
until we both reach
the safety of shore
with both feet on
the ground
