Ogre Rises

about

This is a song about transformation. It's about the enlightenment of a close friend of mine who before my very eyes went from being a very talented artist to a hand of the divine.

lyrics

When you think you’re alone, just think of all the colors in your little home
Then remember the light that inspired them
You inspire me still
If you’re away for a while, want you to know you’re peeking out in my style
These little transients of my love for you, textures on my tiles

I met you with a smile, you never wiped it off
Although there are signs it's been twisted at times
Contorted to fit new means of expression
Still at home as a cheshire grin

I watched you transform right in front of my eyes
From happy go lucky to panicked surprise
I had just washed my hands, turned to look, but you left
Never to come back
Always to come back with the divine

When you think you’re alone, just think of all the colors in your little home
Then remember the light that inspired them
You inspire me still
If you’re away for a while, want you to know you’re peeking out in my style
These little transients of my love for you, textures on my tiles

But it was all for the best. You're on that new track
I wish you well on your way
Don't ever look back
As frightening as the hand must have been at the time
I pray for the day it brings me that

Ogre hungry
Ogre hungry
Ogre hungry
Ogre hungry
