The Keeper's Self
when no clouds touch the sky
tomorrow becomes
just another way to get by
we free birds dream the livr's lie
Forever you and I
live the dreamr's cry
if you ask for the devil long enough
he will eventually join you
so be warm, be joyful
politely ask him to leave
find comfort within the things you know
and appreciate the things you donot
and do try not to be so distant
for when the winds sway
the chill reminds me
just how dearly i miss you
time will bring changes
and age to weather
and in the mist of adversity
you will get to see
the true size of you
Like a mirror for the moment
Tomorrow admires you
"like a curse, i'll write you away"
