All I Need
Sometimes I would like to go and disappear,
Visit a world that is farther away, nowhere near.
Where whatever I do will not be considered a sin,
A place to know I am safe, a place that I will always win.
With the knowledge I have and the books I read,
My mind is filled with life, it's all I need.
With a smile upon my face, it doesn't matter to me,
I'll be gone for a little while, but I will be back, see?
Stretching out a layer of feathered appendages,
As I step out of reality, everything seems to freeze.
Now, I can return to the place that I know the best,
And I can leave for a while, leave the rest.
One day, this whole world I know as reality may fall apart,
But the world I know in my dreams, it remains in my heart.
With that knowledge I have and the books I read,
With a smile upon my face, it's all I need.
