without me

Maybe I can’t see through

All the games

People play

Maybe I’m stupid

Maybe I just didn’t get it

I’m tired of watching my back

Figuring out what I lack

Cut me some slack

Get back on track

Maybe I can’t be

I can’t see

All those spectacular things

That happened without me

Dreaming in circles

Walking into endless

Complicated situations

Reality based on assumptions

Suicidal dreams

A window into clarity

Soundless screams

Put an end to your charity

Mirror Talk

Sitting at the bottom with you. Feeling like a freak. I need the sun to shine upon your face, I need you to be true. Clouds are what you are. Changing all the time, changing your shape, your colours, and when I reach out there’s nothing there.

Grow up, I’ve been telling you to grow up.

I’m tired of clasping your hand in mine, being there every time. Your lips don’t move, your eyes don’t speak. Days are passing us by. The world is spinning out my time.

Towards the rainbow

The sky looks down on me

The clouds promise me rain

And all over again

That feeling rises inside of me

Day turns to night

And every now and then

I fight

All those lonely moments

And yet-

There's a smile in my eyes

A skip in my step

I find love in his lies

And magic in the bird who flies-

Over my head

Towards the rainbow

I'll get ahead

Kiss every seed I sow.

Standing on my own

All this pride I've never known

Comes from within

Feels like I'll win.

When I close my eyes

Dreams fill my mind

And when I wake

I know I cant be left behind

There's a smile in my eyes

A skip in my step

I find love in his lies

And magic in the bird who flies-

Over my head

Towards the rainbow

I'll get ahead

Kiss every seed I sow.
