The Core And The Shell

lyrics

speak
don't hold back
your notions break through walls
with paper and pen
vision and sound
receive, understand
write it down
no one can explain
what's hidden inside
a matter of heart
a matter of mind
dreadful seconds
minutes and hours
crack up the shell
try to devour
the core
the most precious of all
the essence of being
of hate and of love
protect the core
harden the shell
write an elegy and sing your sorrow
stand up, speak up, release yourself
beauty unfolds in the midst of struggle
protect the core, harden the shell
leave your fears behind
stand up, speak up, release yourself
absorb, reflect and invalidate
protect the core, harden the shell
times of dread will come and go
let your shell protect you
let your core resurrect you
