If I ever thought I could fully express
The way I feel I'd've never guessed
That beauty bravery and strength
Would come to me in a seventh
For a time you were my least favorite chord
A ringing note in a disrupted fourth
But my mind was changed on a green and red day
Floated onto me in a seventh
Diminish me or augment me
Do what you will do
Rhythmize or cauterize
Make harmony ring through
I know this song's been coming long
So I promise you I won't get this wrong
And I've got a tool to help me along
Unlikely help in a seventh
The dissonance runs deep in me
Exposing thoughts that I can't see
A beautiful, strong tone that we
Could only find in a seventh
Diminish me or augment me
Do what you will do
Rhythmize or cauterize
Make harmony ring through
