Colours In Between

Searched for so long
From town to town
Disco to dungeon
To solve my conundrum
Bottom of the bottle
Kerouac’s fools
Beat rules to follow
No magic pill to swallow

I don’t know what it all means
All the colours in between
Can’t say what isn’t so
Hope won’t grow where there’s snow

Buried the treasure out of sight
Marked with an X
Map the light
Flame that made me
Burnt me and bathed me
Shroud for my sorrow
Bought not borrowed

I don’t know what it all means
All the colours in between
Can’t say it isn’t so
Hope won’t grow where there’s snow

Hope
Hope to grow
