About this track
ccPlus Commercial Licensing Available The Key is trying to be a gift of forgiveness - for myself and for a long, lost friend. Over a decade ago, I hurt this friend of mine very deeply. It was a tumultuous time, when my biggest dreams were coming true. But as William Blake says, "heaven and hell are born together" -- and at the turn of the century, true to Blake's words, my worst nightmares also befell me. My pain spilled over onto many around me, and I felt helpless. In some ways, I still do. This is the newest track for my album Open, still slowly trudging along. Thanks for your continued support! The Key Your hate moves like a freight train, steady with a heavy weight Barreling down for many years Delivering loads of pain, refueling again and again Any hope caught in your smoke just disappears It's your turn You draw a hard line in the sand, make them walk a wire when they're much too young to stand Over your chasm revenge widens everyday, the innocent say, "hey now, love's the only way" It's your turn to say you're sorry, your turn to fall down on your knees Maybe you'll learn that you've been hurting the ones that you love more than me It's your turn
