Pride Is a Head Full of Treason (9/28/18)

She sifted through her reasons 

To reflect the changing seasons 

She was living by her own rules 

And rising with the Phoenix 


Pride is a head full of treason 

When we don’t wanna die 

So she took her trials by fire 

Walked that lonely desert mile 


Her smile left no earthly trace 

It had no wanting of a face 

She tried to cross the River Styx 

But drowned instead her sinking ship 


Pride is a head full of treason 

When we don’t wanna die 

So she took her trials by water  

Found it was her holy mother 


She took a circle gold and true 

She found a forest she once knew 

She looked her soul deep in the eyes 

Married him to make it right 


Pride is a head full of treason 

When we don’t wanna die 

So she took a chance to love again 

Painted clean the lovers’ whim 


Here she sits with clearer eyes 

She’s here right now 

Without disguise 

Waiting on her one true dream 

Patience like a flowing stream 


Pride is a head full of treason 

When we don’t wanna die 

So she mustered up the courage true

To start again and follow through
