In the motherland amongst the wind of the north
Under the shadow of the great fallout
Memories blow around in dispare

Ghosts of fathers past wander
Looking for lost time
And hearts that no longer feel

Never to touch or hold again
Is the price they now have to pay
Tears no longer fall anymore
As silence keeps them close

Why do you stand on the middle of the land and cry

Can't this be, just you and me, on a bad day

Holding out my hands capturing the words that spill down down down

Close your eye's now, build your heart up now, grab this dream and prey

Is this just a bad day we have, can it be all that we have

I once loved you, don't you see
I once knew can't you feel
I once dreamed it's for real

And you cry out and you walk away
From this bad day

I analyzed you. Sitting across from me at that coffee table. I knew your thoughts as your eyes were indulged in that morning paper. I know more than what those reports share with you. I watched you, but you didn't know that. I saw the fear in your eyes and watched your hands tremble. In that moment you let go of me, but I still had you. We had each other... And no matter what the world crumbles to, I've got you.

Run away with me for a
day. Let's go to a place
that's surrounded by
mountains and a lot of
green forest trees. A place
where the flowers will sigh
and blush when they see
us kiss and touch. A place
where we'll get to be the
normal us. Away from the
public away from the law.
Away from those with judging
eyes and the haters dressed
in disguise. Let's run away
so far away. Where we could
kiss and hug. And talk about
our dreams with passion to
one another. A place where
I could scream the words of
I love you out loud while I
feel so confident and proud.
A place where you'll take my
hand and count to three. Lean forward and ****** a kiss
from me. A place where we'll
make a little bonfire and
have some coffee and tea.
Stare for hours at the blue
skies. Watch the dandelion
seeds and pollen grains float
away up high. Wait for the
stars to come out at night.
Where we'll be the only
audience waiting to watch
the show they'll pull on. The
only lovers up late in the
open wild. The only ones
who'll appreciate the light
they'll radiate in the dead
of night as they'll shine
bright in the dark
skies* ~
