Shades of Indigo - new original
Shades of Indigo He come from Jericho out on the plain Expecting nothing much of anything Not such for reason or appeal An aimless cog inside a wheel of mangled steel She worked the counter for a dollar chain In shades of indigo every day the same Her daddy barely knew her name Trapped and entangled in a never ending maze An abstract actor in a small town play An aging ingenue in worn chambray The curtain rises on the stage The scene is set to cast the players straightaway Lifelong disappointment, left bitter and unhealed No secret wish that ever come true Inside an empty heart where no hurt hides concealed No silver lining there to cling to A chance encounter in no special place A random fall into a state of grace A dance in stark black silhouette Forgives a lifetime of rejection and regret In dawn's fair afterglow the past is done In words spoke easily a new day begun History's unabating loneliness Distant memories of a numbing callousness With no uncertain clarity the future is revealed A promise made that gently binds you In time the spark takes hold and now a light burns in the soul The cherished hope that comes to find you

Thank you Rick. As has become my madness and obsession, I've spent several hours and countless "takes" further developing this song to a point that I can marginally begin to tolerate it. I've updated the OP to reflect the current version, but have little expectation that it will remain as is.
