ONE STEP
Jump forward into this world of pain
Jump back and find the stars
Bleeding thoughts won't dry your tears
Bleeding eyes see all your fears
Gaping jaw surprised by demons
Gaping thought welcome angels
Whirling universe with one in the middle
Whirling images driving home
Take the ice and ease your bruise
Take the ice away from your soul
Worshop the space that supports paradise
Worship the space where you live your life
We are all here to support your needs
We are all here to lift you off your knees
A shoulder carries the hurt and fear
A shoulder carries the burdens and tears
Arms to carry the pain that burns
Arms to carry you to what you yearn
One step forward to where we were
One step back from where we burned
A loving turn into the stars
A running leap that was too hard.
