Lion's Roar

I cannot explain the weight with which this song hit me when it first materialized in my head.


I've locked eyes with the devil
I've locked eyes with the Lord
My eyes have seen things too beautiful
And terrifying to ignore
I've performed some shameful deeds
Best left unsaid behind locked doors
Let heaven, hell, and earth
Proclaim the Mighty Lion's roar

All in good time
All in good time
I love you
I love you

I've sunk into the pit
I've flown with golden wings
I've tried too hard to buy true love
With fake diamond rings
I've no concern for death or fortune
That the future brings
In waking lucid dream I hear
The choir of angels sing

All in good time
All in good time
I love you
I love you

Today is not the first day
Today might be the last
Today is now the present
In a second becomes the past
Pink and blue on the mailbox
Red, white, and blue at half mast
The song remains the same
With every grain in the hourglass

All in good time
All in good time
I love you
I love you
