Four beds (p5)

RainbowKeeper

Well first new post on the new site…

Four beds (p5)

Coming here for help n’ some peace. A‘
An open ear and a clean mind
For harmony in soul and brain
Longing for answers out to find
Panic and tears they grow and flow
Try to fight try to be strong
Open up on what’s inside
Been hidden for so damn long

Others share this faithful journey A+
They know what you are going through
Equal but different that’s a fact
All try to start their life anew
Painting, talking and listening
Shall help to climb up the hill
And leave the dark edge behind
Try to pave the way with your will

Four beds and a table. B
And some chairs around
Four beds and a table
A room filled with fears
Four beds and a table
And some chairs around
Prayers reach the heavenly spheres

It’s a long way. C
Cold and lonely
It’s a long way
So hard to stay, so hard to be
It’s a long way
And can be dangerous
To reopen the eyes and see
It’s a long way
Cold and lonely
So hard to stay, so hard to be
Want to spread your wings, flying free

Doctors change the medication A*
Morning, midday and for the night
Pills of many different colours
In different shapes like snow crystals
To help find back the inner light

You're really painting a picture here. I feel like I'm almost sitting at that table it's so real.

For me there's a kind of stillness to this. A pause in the chaos to raise your head and look around.

I like that last line, it gives a sense of hope to finish on:

To help find back the inner light

A very minor thing:

"Longing for answers out to find" < "out to find" felt a little off there. Trying to find maybe? But it's ok as is too.

Holy Molly, this is so real. I want to stand and applause as tears run down my face. Very relatable lyrics and one of my favorites for sure. Needs music!!

Thank you guys! I guess it was meant to be written. Every morning I wake up and the first thing I see is four beds and the table…trying to feel better, trying to survive.
