Shattered

Looking out a rainy window, Seeing places that seem strange, Makes you think of old and new, Shattered dreams, a glimpse of change, All away and all distorted, In the once so hopeful heart, All beneath what you have planned, If a plan is what you've got. Many try to comprehend, Why trouble just comes their way; Sadly they find in the end That they couldn't have a say And they're wrong for thinking so But when sadness flies to you, There isn't much you can do... Is there? Maybe lie to you and others, That we are a happy kind, Just that sometimes we are clouded By the way our lives entwine.
