there is only one constant presence in my life
through the liars and the lies and the love in my life,
this steadfast, sure-thing reliance has remained.
through the good, the good-byes, the good health and the good luck-
this amazing anomaly and fantastic phenomenon
has been the only continual continuance in my life.

helping me through my sadness
loving me when a love was lost
supporting me during my success

the sound of your subtle sweetness
brings me that rare relaxation
and yes, yes, yes
it is a need in my life.
it's an addiction in my life,
the drug, the alcohol, in my life.

i need to hear of
a love lost
or that final cost
a broken heart
or that new start
old flash-backs and new panic-attacks

acoustic guitars
and a single voice

the soothing symphony
of melody and rhythm combined.

it's music that i need.
i need to bask in it's beauty.
shower in it's sweetness.
dive into it's depths.
because it is
the only continual continuance in my life.
