When you're feeling lost, where do you go?

The Bridge of Permanence

The water shimmers as it reflects the lights

Green one minute, purple the next

A long way down to the water below

A long way from a place called home

Next they turn blue

Like the colour of her hair

Then the colour is new

And I can feel that she cares

There's a hand on my arm

As the lights change again

There's a hand on my shoulder

And a voice in my ear

They pull me away from the edge where I stand

Away from the ledge as they're holding my hand

As our eyes finally meet

I look down to my feet

On solid ground

As I finally felt found

We walked from the bridge

And nothing mattered from my past

'She was all the colours, all at once, on full blast'.
