You are growing up
Whilst I am growing older
You touch the mountain's top
But I fear to be bolder
You have a bright future
Whilst I’m buried in the past
You have a graceful feature
And I ‘m uncouth and outcast
You’re grasping the sun
Whilst I’m in quest of the light
You leave nothing undone
But I do nothing right
You hear the bird’s sweet song
But howling is all I hear
You weep for so long
When I hate a single tear
You have a singing heart
When my heart aches in fear
You just want to depart
When I hold you so near
You conquer the night
And I’m a slave of the dark
You fly over the plight
When I burn in the spark
You let the stars fall down
When I need their beams
You live in a dreamless town
When I need you in my dreams
You’re my Purple Magic
But I ‘m your Dark Black Hole
You embrace the tragic
When I want your joy to roll
But there’s no disparity
Between your love and mine
Till the end of time
Within my soul it'll shine.
