I am not a huge fan of country music, and not many songs could you find anything even teetering on the edge of depth in modern country. But this guy...this guy will not only pull your heart strings, he will chew them to tiny pieces and glue them back together with rubber cement. Then he will let you have them to use again, only never to be the same as before.

"John was a Baptist.

He feared the world could end at any time.

You and I are charged with this, to hold the essence of a kiss

To take these broken plans and make them rhyme."

In our chaos and regret

Let us not forget we will one day

Come undone

I will feel your tired fingers one last time

My forever never ending words will hush

This rhythmic dance will break to the night

Linger in the sweat of

Our breath

Let it surround you

Gather all the pieces

These are yours

Make them whole and see them before you

In a short while

They will have never been

They will crumble

And your glitter will reside

Your flame will fall away

With the glint in your eye

Our chaos, it will cease

It will die

With our puzzle, it is swept away

Into a box

And in our box with our puzzle

Here we will be no longer
