Conscience

from Fiction Facade by James Morse

/

about

This song is an ode to Sydney, wife, companion, lover, friend

lyrics

I reckon I had the chance
to have another
but I gave it up
because my conscience
was calling
and in the end
it just wouldn't permit it.

Consciousness and its invisible strings me to another thought

Why do I wanna choose
either right or wrong
or nothing at all?

It's been a long day
come a long way
writing songs keeps me
focused on the better days

It feels like I've been running for days
Now I'm living off of hope in a feeling

When the feeling's gone
then where do I go?

Chase down a mirage
some artifice, a montage
of images

Gotta find a way to get back
oh, but I can't get back,
Oh, I gotta get back

I could fall in love again and again
with you
show me the way,
Sydney,
I need you now more than ever

This is my letter
I wanna be better
How can I show you in so many words all together

You are the other the Almighty sent
to walk on into the darkness
of night

It blinds my eyes and burns away,
burns the imperfection in the night

burns the imperfection in the night

It's a darkness so bright its light
is a relative night.
