Hero

Blue clouds in the azure sky
Frowning people walking by
At times, it seems, that's all I saw
My perception skewed, all seemed lost

But, my demons are gone to me
Locked up tight from my sobriety
Beaten down, with nothing to drink
And gone from my life
In just a wink

So try to imagine 
A life full of sun
And all you wanted is just in front
Or where your sitting or where you stand 
The decision to be your own Hero 
Is in your hands
