Out of Thin Air
My heart is stuck in thin air
under the atmospheric pressure of my thoughts
unable to breath in the depths of my subconscious
and touch the beauty within my soul
It's like a game of hide-and-seek
trying to find the child inside of my heart
who stole all of my dreams
and took away my unique perception of the world
Where through change do I find what was
how can I keep that which doesn't resemble myself anymore
opening the back-doors to my nightmares
and believe anything is possible on the ladder of life
Be-able to just breath again through the fresh air of the past
where the adult world was indeed a world of fantasy
not like a childhood robbed of it's rarity and wonder
and people were aliens amongst themselves
