When all the fallout settles leaving nothing left to fail
The smallest voice cries out its lungs in little more than silence
To deal my mind the swiftest blow and rouse me from paralysis
And sing out like a dove among the lowly hum of violence
It says to me emphatic
It's all melodramatic
And just one act could strip this darkest magic
It all seems too much
A single word or touch might
Help me find the comic in the tragic
It comes as just one thing that's right in everything that isn't
A life ring in the centre of the ocean's rising tide
The razor edge of light that slips between the bars of prison
The sugar crystal in my morning cup of cyanide
A simple act of love
To heal the hurt I have inside
