lyrics

"(we, the) beehive champions" by Joseph Stone, 2014

As strangers we meet
as friends we speak
speechless we greet each other
in meekness we leave

We share our meager lives
our treasures stored
in fragile heart containers
we are soon to discover
that together our lives are not so meager

You have torn down my last defense
I feel like there is nothing left to protect
and so I lay here waiting for the final death blow
only to find that I’m at home

Let’s do this again
because after all we are beehive champions
we’ve got the war wounds to prove it
we can keep on going as long as we don’t quit

With clenched fists, how can we expect love?
With open palms, we can gracefully express love
with outstretched arms, we can faithfully protect love
with open hearts, we can finally accept love

(la la la... )

The longer we go
the father we seek
to trek past our fears
and find the strength that runs deep

We share our meager lives
our treasures stored
in fragile heart containers
we are soon to discover
that together our lives are not so meager

You have worn down my last excuse
to become anything less than my very best
and so I sit here feeling rather obtuse
because you choose to see past my messiness

Let’s do this again
because after all we are beehive champions
we’ve got the war wounds to prove it
we can keep on going as long as we don’t quit
