Runaway Ambition

Runaway ambition Written 5-10-07 Edited 8-22-07 I wake up early morning Hoping the rain is pouring I glance out the house door Everyday there's someone out there poor I gather up my things There is definitely a place to be by the swings I think about the future around me Maybe I can find something meant to be I pray for everyone to understand it Someone will figure it out just a bit My feet touch the wet ground Anyone could think I will never be found The tears run down my cheek Guessing no one will find time to seek I walk reluctantly down the street Maybe someone new I can meet The cool air blows on my skin Only god knows about my terrible sin Blood in my veins rush by fast Just look forward, forget the past I lay at rest beneath the rooftop from the rain People who knew me, I caused them pain I'm sorry dear family Forgive me my loved friends You do not realize What I feel like Deep thoughts run through my head I miss my own bed It's not the same life anymore No one to cuddle with when I'm sore Life on the street
