The Devil Lights Up At Dawn

Youth,
When night was our God.
All we did was play,
Then it hit us,
We are the people of play and pay,
The true heirs,
The loved ones,
The ones who never bled too much.
The flowers in our nostrils,
Strangling our youth like they always do.
The true heirs,
We stood at the doorway,
 Admiration was our bread and butter,
We know patience, after all.
After all these trials who knew we should live it up.
My love,
Play tires us;
I want to see the beauty finally accept your graces.
Play tires us;
I want to be with you in our pursuit of happiness,
Don't betray me,
It doesn't pay to walk the wrong road.
Play tires us,
Sometimes I feel like we should be more than we are.
That's where it all begins;
Our fountain of happiness and youth.
That's where it all begins,
Our gamble with life and death.
That's where it all begins;
Our romance with guns and violence.
Our romance with simplicity and excess.
That's where it all ends.
The thieving and the lying.
That's where it all begins,
The creativity and the hunger.
I can't say this enough,
I feel like I can live; live the true life.
That's where it all begins,
Owning the nightmare and finally living,
That's where it all begins;
With unity and intuition.
That's where it all begins;
The oaks of righteousness.
That's where it all ends;
With ganja, a hunger for despair and the right state of mind.
That's where it all begins;
Standing your ground.
My love,
I saw you at the beach.
With your lumps of destiny chaste and enticing,
I couldn't hide the cockiness on my lips.
That's where it all begins,
The unity in God;
Without a blemish.
That's where it all begins for now.
