THIS INSTANT
music and lyrics: Carolyn Wonderland
If it were as easy to change the mind of a king
as it were to turn on a light switch
Would you run into the light
or sit there in the dark and just bitch
There's chances to be taken, lessons to be learned
Bridges to be crossed and bridges to be burned
When taking the high road contradicts the path of least resistance
You jump into the Ether with all of your soul and follow your heart for this instant
This instant
You can close your eyes so tight
that you never notice the sun when it's rising
Or you might wake up in this fine car
and realize you're the one driving
There's chances to be taken, lessons to be learned
Bridges to be crossed and bridges to be burned
When taking the high road contradicts the path of least resistance
You jump into the Ether with all of your soul and follow your heart for this instant
This instant
Was it angels that freed you from it all this time
Or devils that stole it from you in a card trick
Either way the water runs the same
Whether or not you choose to make yourself sick
There's chances to be taken, lessons to be learned
Bridges to be crossed and bridges to be burned
When taking the high road contradicts the path of least resistance
You jump into the Ether with all of your soul and follow your heart for this instant
This instant, this instant
