Our Hearts

We are the poets who scream
Stumble and swear
We are the artists who paint
With black and gray
We shut the fuck up
And let our actions speak
We cheat on life
With five finger discount
This is a personal fight, this fight is personal
We embrace the night with adventure in our eyes
With fire in our hearts
Every silence that we break, every life that we reclaim
We seek for the beaches
Beneath the pavement*
We look for the forests
Behind the skyscrapers
