Where Thoughts May Carry You

The night sky enters the scene Shatters my dream, and the rainbow the day made Guess you can never escape, the things that are meant to haunt you I stare with sleepy eyes outside to the stars Once my guiding light, once my run away Now all I do is stay, and stare Wish, and Pray The sun will come up again tomorrow Maybe shine a little brighter for me Knows I’m sleeping in, knows my secrets God is watching everything I do I feel sometimes He is sarcastic with His matches Like a child, throwing tantrums When it rains, it pours And no one knows I’ll tell you bits and pieces of what life is like here But I keep it all so near and dear, for fear That it will haunt me more if I whisper the truth out loud Do you think you know me now? The skies invade my days with canvassed rays That my friend paints in pretty pictures of a world She wishes still held the innocence she portrays I’d wait all day at the beach, on my knees If that meant finding the meaning to this life To my compromise for floundering my way through Want to know the difference between me and you? Guess what. I do too.
