BITTERSWEET SYMPHONY

I felt your gentle compassion then your burning anger
I tasted your nourishing joy but then felt a yearning hunger
 
You bathed me with the warmth of the sun then with storms you replaced
You gave me the softest caress then slapped my face
 
I heard your delightful laugh but then your piercing cries
I received the sweetest welcome but felt the heart-ripping goodbyes
 
You guided me to a warm healing light followed by a treacherous hell
You enchanted me with your fascinating magic then cast your most evil spell
 
I discovered the sweetest of symphonies and the most bitter of laughters
I heard the gentle running rivers but no happy ever afters
 
Now give me,
 
Your misguided faith and I’ll replace it with a liberating salvation
Evoke your most fearful, destructive god and I’ll show you true loving compassion
 
Give me a restraining sorrow and I’ll give you an open sky to breath
Offer me the weakest rejection and I’ll give you arms that will ease
 
Unveil your craving for passion and I’ll show you the softest release
Confine me in constricting pain and I’ll give you a healing relief
 
Reveal your sordid fantasies and I’ll share my most soothing dreams
Tell me your perverse desires and I’ll give you a pure love supreme
 
Show me your blinding darkness and I’ll show you wonders to see
Give me a world that paralyses and I’ll give you a world that is free.
