Part 3 of 6 from Cherry Blossom. The choice to sell a part of yourself on a roll of the dice, and rationalising that you can give back later more than you take today.
Drums, Mixing, and Mastering by Graham Shaw.
Spotlight is a cage
Can't see your little flame
I'm caught on the stage
I’ll build what you imagine
Lights go down, but you know the way,
Don't you cry, I'll still be the one you remember.
I'll return, more than I let them burn
Don't you cry, I'll still be the one that you love.
Fires arise
And you feel unsure
When you don't want to walk anymore
Just you open your eyes
Spotlight is a cage
Can't see your little flame
I'm caught on the stage
I’ll build what you imagine
Just a taste of the world they consume
It's alright, I told you I won't lose my way
I'll sell mine, and you can have your soul
It's alright, the green will all grow back here someday
Fires arise
And you feel unsure
When you don't want to walk anymore
Just remember the price of reality
Arise, arise, don't you turn away now
I'll give you what you wanted
A place, our own, I'll bring you the world
I’ll build what you imagine
Spotlight is a cage
Can't see your little flame
I'm caught on the stage
I’ll build what you imagine
Fires go out, on where we used to play
Don't you cry, I'll still be the one you remember
I'll return more than I let them burn
Don't you cry, I'll still be the one that you lovemore
