they say
that there is a time
when the sun rises and causes just the faintest green flash
over the eastern shores of America

But i say
you don't have to wake so early
on the western shores where it is warm and relaxing

they say
the northern lights
are the most amazing action seen on earth

But i say
just look at the galaxy on a still
night
away from the noise
away from the lights

they say
they control their destinies
that they save themselves
that they have power

But i say
a planet revolving around a ball of gas at a perfect 23
was created by One God
by One Savior

they say
they know a girl
that is most beautiful
that is most sweet

But i say
they don't know The Girl
that is more than beautiful
that is more than sweet

But i say
they don't The Girl
that makes a heart skip
that makes a strong man
become a puddle

i say
they don't know Her
Who makes the stars look dull
and makes the universe
look like silly putty

they don't know
Jil
