Flying High In the Aqua-Blue Sky

High…way up high in the aqua blue sky, I see a black and white checkered kite… floating higher and higher than I, myself… But, I was shoved Into another shelf… High…way up high in the aqua blue sky, 2 birds were flying together in harmony… it made me smile If only…I could fly another mile… If only…I could higher my smile… If only…I could fly higher If only…I could taste ecstasy… people would accuse me as a liar If I experienced the best day of my life… But, I don’t wanna live with undying strife… I want peace… Hand it over, please… Hand me the keys So I could experience perpetual peace I took flight like those bird couples… But, I was on an airplane… High…way up high in the aqua blue sky, I wouldn’t be greedy for gain… I’m trying to act sane… But, I’m actually insane In many ways…I love my uniqueness… And my stubbornness… and my gladness… And my madness… my imagination goes wild But, I need to put it on a leash…so I could remain mild High…way up high in the aqua blue sky, I’d feel the rain Trickle down my hands…my wet, wrinkly hands High…way up high in the aqua blue sky, No one would understand How awesome and wonderful I’ve felt that day… Up there… up there…I felt like a king… But, now I lost that memory…I lost my ring To success…but I’m willing to pick up my progress… My pace…is slow like a snail’s pace Do you see me crying? Just look at my face… High…way up high in the aqua blue sky, I’m the clouds absorbing tears High…way up high in the aqua blue sky, I’d be willing to release them… but they’ve been stored up forever it seems And…hell – I have been Shaking with fear… Breaking by the seams High…way up high in the aqua blue sky, I was…….. Daydreaming again… My mind was stuck on cloud 7… Thank heavens That I’m still alive – staring into space Just look at my sopping face… I see no grace…I see only a pathetic face In the mirror……. This little dream of mine Was rather sublime I was a sweet boy, but now I’m sour like lime If I were a bird, I'd fly away from my problems... I'll flutter away Without a care in the world... I want to be happy-go-lucky... But, I'm bound to submit to my Misery.............................
