Bottled by Ordinary by Catherine Deaton Bottled by ordinary Trapped in mundane You were extraordinary World, never the same. You challenged the rulers Created new laws A rebel to many Not understanding your cause. Socializing with sinners Uninterested in fame Wealthy, lavish life You shunned, unclaimed. Empty words echo Proclaim love for You Insist You're our model Appearance, untrue. Lives literally wasted Vanishing sand Slipping through time No touch of Your hand. We toil and strain Priorities askew Planning, demanding Not listening to You. We're wise in our eyes Lacking in truth Decaying of souls Visualize the proof. Who will break out Bottle so strong Who will step forward Shatter the wrong? Is anyone willing? Break free from the crowd Eternity beckons Now clamoring loud. Bottled by ordinary Trapped in mundane It's time for extraordinary It's time for a change! |
