Oh this Beautiful Chaos...

So we are in the process of finishing up a demo for the "Beautiful Chaos" contest and wanted to post the lyrics to the song. For those of you that don't know, Willow from "Telepathy" posted a partial poem/lyric for another sellaband artist to complete and put to music. Here are the lyrics we came up with (her's are in bold)

poverty is filled with hope
of luxuries we'll never know
try to see a pot of gold
with every cumulus rainbow

Escape to an Oasis
from the middle of the mad rush
breathe the green air garden
hidden from the road dust

society begins to fold
this tragedy it has it's role
a dark beauty without a glow
the spectacle becomes the show

Escape to this new haven
from the fragile bearing arms
slip underneath the radar of
this temporary storm
sit back and watch humanity
build up til it implodes
the overbearing pressure
sparks a diamond from the coal

and you will see
in all this war
there's still beauty
in chaotic forms

Oh the dust of the road
in the heat of the sun
the clashing of souls
and the firing of guns
we rest in the peace
and quiet of our homes
but we just can't escape
the contradiction
of this beautiful chaos
oh this beautiful chaos
