Changes
Fought my battles all alone
Used them as a stepping stone
Seems I put my time on loan
But now I’m moving on
Feeling lost and forsaken
From all the wrong roads that I’ve taken
Nowhere to go when I awaken
And soon it’s breaking dawn
Memories of days long past
Wondering how my die was cast
Seen some sun but it didn’t last
Rain helps a person grow
Why it’s such a heavy load
Guess it’s from the seeds I sewed
Gonna try another road
Feel it’s time to go
Seeking shelter from the rain
Wanting something to ease the pain
One more time I’ll jump that train
Just to see what I can find
Sometimes changes bring the sun
No longer feel like the only one
Satisfied when the day is done
Nothing left behind
I see those changes inside me
Crying out to let me be
Once entrapt but now I’m free
The price I’ll have to pay
But this is as good as it gets
Watching tropical sunsets
No remorse and no regrets
Here I’m going to stay
