Behind the Glitter

Once again
Walking the road
Seeing the dirt
And noise of the globe
Dusty and broken
Many a-dreams
Cold and frozen
Hearts within
Covered in hues
Faces and necks
Glasses and lipsticks
Shawls and braids
Trying and trying
Searching in things
Tears are running
Hiding the scream

Nothing to lose
Save for the blues
Put down the bottle
Bury the throttle
Walk outside
Notice the light
Look at the child
Amid the crowd
No need to run
Put down the gun
Please don't pretend
Be frank with a friend
Take off the shades
Connect and dance
Find the key
To eternity
