Let's Talk About Your Soul A Moment, Shall We?

from Voices & Vices Volume III by Jonathan Atkins

lyrics

I know a thing about beauty.
It’s the reason I first laid eyes on you.
I had not known a single detail about your soul,
Or that the beauty had dug itself from the outside, through.

I know a thing about beauty,
And maybe the Japanese did it best,
By lacing broken objects with a resin of gold,
Together we can accomplish the same within our chests.

I know a thing about beauty,
It’s that it doesn’t stand strong for eternity.
It grows frail and fragile, yes,
Beauty is breakable in sincerity.

The truth about your beauty is,
There is a strong guard holding still to your mind,
To your soul, and to your person.
A still beauty that will hold fast for all of time.

about

Jonathan Atkins Mississauga, Ontario

"A singer-songwriter with a devastating ear for harmonies and a delicate touch with lyrics that slide perfectly into a horrid winter. There's a definite Celtic touch, but far sweeter than something like Mumford & Sons." - Andrew Fifield (Metro News)
