Landscape

Connected by a feeling to another place Deep within our minds are landscapes that are safe Protected by a distance free of any signs The only ones that see us are the ones we want to find A sanctuary dressed in all we need to see With tunnels of our wisdom running underneath A sky that only changes in tune with how we feel No matter where we go there’s nothing that’s not real Imagination growing inside our inner eye Reflecting on the surface of things that make us smile Trepidation leaving as we explore the caves The dark is all around us but our sanctuary’s safe A cavern decorated with bodies of the lost We want to run away but we can’t afford the cost Further into darkness we finally find our way The tunnels underground are shortcuts to the day Connecting every mountain to lakes that hold our needs We find the ones that made it and know them underneath Protecting every person that wants to find the truth We’re painting our landscape with signs that give them proof
