Volume 1 Issue 4
What's In a Name?
-What does a name mean to you? There's a lot in a name, but what does it mean to you?
Cheer Up, Knoxlogan
by Morgan Harper, United States
-verse one-
today's the day they tell you
you're never going to see again
all the colors and figures
tomorrow you will forget
no more memories
but mind games and mysteries
the substance of endlessness
and what we thought mattered
-chorus-
but cheer up Knoxlogan
you'll redefine the world again
through your trembling fingertips
there's an ugly world
you no longer have to see
-verse two-
tonight's the night you realize
you're never going to love again
they'll dance around around you
but no one holds your hand
but tomorrow when the morning comes
while they still pretend that they're in love
you'll walk right through them with a
peace they could never have
-chorus-
so cheer up Knoxlogan
you'll redefine the world again
through your trembling fingertips
there's an ugly world
you no longer have to see
-bridge-
please don't envy what you think you lost
have you any idea of the infinite cost
to stand in the light that only shines for the free
to stand in the light that only the blind can see
-chorus-
so cheer up Knoxlogan
you'll redefine the world again
through your trembling fingertips
there's an ugly world
that no longer has to be and
there's a beautiful world
that only you can see
today's the day they tell you
you're never going to see again
all the colors and figures
tomorrow you will forget
no more memories
but mind games and mysteries
the substance of endlessness
and what we thought mattered
-chorus-
but cheer up Knoxlogan
you'll redefine the world again
through your trembling fingertips
there's an ugly world
you no longer have to see
-verse two-
tonight's the night you realize
you're never going to love again
they'll dance around around you
but no one holds your hand
but tomorrow when the morning comes
while they still pretend that they're in love
you'll walk right through them with a
peace they could never have
-chorus-

you'll redefine the world again

to stand in the light that only the blind can see
-chorus-
so cheer up Knoxlogan
you'll redefine the world again
through your trembling fingertips
there's an ugly world
that no longer has to be and
there's a beautiful world
that only you can see
