the truest beauty

what time we give to echoes from the heart
is taken from the horrors of the dark
the truest beauty is the sign of art

life gives us signs of sorrow from the start
but we can't know this just as we embark
what time we give to echoes from the heart

what is divine comes from what we impart
laying our course between the rat and shark
the truest beauty is the sign of art

another sigil sold in open mart
will indicate that some things are not stark
what time we give to echoes from the heart

a record that's been kept in place apart
contains the hope that's in a chance remark
the truest beauty is the sign of art

not for these efforts are we accounted smart
but that we raised in you the greatest spark
what time we give to echoes from the heart
the truest beauty is the sign of art
