No One Knows
I'm singing along with this song
I so want to belong either right or wrong
There's a raging storm against the sea
Possibly, I've been wrong all along, baby
Incredibly tired of losing it over and over
I long to be next to you, my lucky four-leaf clover
Frankly, I am breathless from your rollercoaster of insanity
Sincerely, I am endlessly brewing away the tears from my eyes of set-me-free
I tuck in my shoes
And make a run
Singing along with the blues
Life has just begun
I'm on my own on the road to nowhere in particular
The sun is shone in your eyes of something peculiar
I won't go home where I roam for so long
I want you and I to stand among
The crowd of envious people...such lovely people
The atlas to your lost soul is grand as a whole
Lonely as a lark in the dark
I am not as sturdy as an ark
Believe me, don't leave me on my own
Surprisingly, I won't grieve for you, for I'll be gone
On and on and on,
I run into the shining sun
There's a ton of stuff I haven't said yet
But, I'll make it up to you, so you'll make me your outlet
Regret and doubt drown my mind
There's someone inside that died
Alone and fearless, but I cannot find
You in the wilderness in which you hide
I can't deny those lies you spoke last night
Yesterday, you were confident with all your might
I can't deny those goodbyes you sang to me in delight
Pull me away from the darkness, for I look up to you like the light
In the shadows,
No one knows
Where the wicked wind blows
But, in your glorious eyes, it shows
In the radiant reflection,
I catch a glance at your affection
You healed my infection
And you showed me true, divine direction
Oh, you can't let go of my sweater
You were always a bit of a go-getter
I tried to tell you things will get better
You're skin is smooth and your touch is as soft as a feather
You create in me a precious, gracious love
Love of mine, you'll do fine on your own
Just like I did, but you're too high above
I can't reach out to you...I feel somewhat alone
You strike me as a lone stranger in a strange place
I can't replace you with a trace of grace upon your face
You play me like your ancient guitar and I am dancing on the dance floor
You play me like a vanity violin and I am glancing at you all the more
I have been touched to the core...I know I am such a bore
You're the one I have always adored
Who are you to tear me apart...what are you waiting for?
I'm rocking back and forth like a boat that I can't afford
Down as the ground,
But high as the rainbow sky
I'm adventure-bound
It's reality talking I can't deny
Most of me has fallen silent as the midnight moon
All of me is wrapped up in your elegantly-weaved cocoon
I have jumped the ring of fire
It scorched me aflame many times just for your sake
You are my inspiration I desire
You forced me to believe in myself, even before I break
My mind's melody of hopelessness
Surviving and thriving in happiness
