Dragons

I didn?t wanna know
But I knew my beliefs had shifted some
So I ignored all the groans in my cavernous soul in case I woke some dragon up

I settled for liquid gold
Numb the worry over ice
But the longer you wait to spelunker that cave so the longer it terrifies

It took me two years to find the courage
But I finally did
In just 40 minutes I faced my darkness and I stared at it
So scared I?d lose myself when I learned what I thought
But the dragons I feared weren?t all that fierce after all
Oh the dragons I feared weren?t all that fierce after all

I kinda like my job
I?m kinda proud of the things I?ve done
I was so terrified, I?d learn it?s all a lie
And I?d have to find another one

Maybe in part it was
But that means a part was still divine
And I don?t know if I?ll ever do better than that, to link fragments of God through rhyme

It took me two years to find the courage
But I finally did
For about 40 minutes I asked who God is
And I stared at Him
So scared I?d learnt Him by a name that He?s not called
But the dragons I feared weren?t all that fierce after all
Oh compared to the fear, the dragon was actually quite small!
