Listen to i Want by Richard Charles Stevens (Stay The Night Suite)

Listen to Stay The Night by Zedd feat. Hayley Williams

i Want it
i Want the fairytale and all that it proposes
i Want to drop the shawl and run wild through the roses
i Want to seek the deepest truth within and willfully expose it
.
i Want it
To traverse the path I’ve chosen
With the worth of brave returning interwoven
To defer the waves that change our pace when broken
To prefer the way our hearts parade when open
To seek the light in darker shades
Succeed despite debacle days
Proceed through secret garden maze
And bleed to seed the startup phase
i Want it
Every i Love you unspoken
To be childlike in delivery and lifelike in its motion
.
i Want it
To embrace the hum of overrunning ocean
To see illumination coming
Cradle its devotion
To play among the sun rays spun
Delay the moon with sense of fun
Then whence it cometh
Head to summit
Rummage through the stars becoming
Plummet to the depths of me
To rise up in ascendency
Slow heel to toe
Reveal there is no end to me
Essentially make sense of dreams
That set a scene most zestfully
When bleak mists whisper destiny
Lean in for sweet kiss breathlessly
.
Life is too short to be caught napping when the rapping at my chamber door implores that I place best foot forth
Remapping course
Endorsed by happy thoughts long sought
No longer in the brambles caught
Life no more grand lesson taught
Than how to rise from trampled fall
All of me is all I had to grab a lifeline fast
Great woe had befallen me
Yet audibly at least had passed
At last a cease to self-decree
An end to start
To reconvene
A beating heart uniquely themed
The greeting card to all who see
The all of me incautiously bequeathed
Scenic art to reinforce belief
Reenergised in eyes delighting sketch designs
That testify intensified incline
To see mankind survive the night
Outstay the moon and break on through
To play among the sun rays spun
Then whence it cometh
Overrun the summit
With a sense of fun
.
i Want to make a fairytale
And set sail to become it
With a pocketful of pebbles and a rebel cause of courage
i Want it
Every braveheart to embark on artful flourish
For i Wish to see a masterpiece encouraged
.

To rise up in ascendency

When bleak mists whisper destiny
Lean in for sweet kiss breathlessly

With a pocketful of pebbles and a rebel cause of courage
