If only I could explain
The racing of my mind
The thoughts that intertwine
In this midwinter craze
Its all a maze
Strange days just running away
But
We still stay sane
We still find our way
Even through this midwinter maze
It's cold inside
Our hearts lost the warmth
That once laid open
With the fall of snow that lays upon the thicket
It is etched in my mind
My heart held ransom
With thoughts that I can explain
But words are only words
And thoughts are mostly thoughts
Maybe its better left unsaid?
Its all a maze
Strange days just running away
But
We still stay sane
We still find our way

Im not who I was
I'm better I'm worse
I smile I cry
For something that I believe won't die

I'm running away
I'm walking the same
walking the wrong line
Living a life that isn't mine

Stay true
Stay loyal
Be who you are
There's no in between

Only seeing the stars
When it's the moons light I'm after
But the sun comes up
And the darkness fades

Same things
Just a different day

Havin' a blast
With the friends that last
Been carried over the stepping stones
Hopefully doing the same when they were in a cast

Looking into clear blue eyes
Remembering the calmness of the ocean that day
Knowing in the end everything will work out as it may

Slowly losing sight on the important things in life
Stuck on screens, different scenes
The endless pursuit of happiness
Just another day wasted by…

Living in an outside jail
Losing track of the beauty made
Seeing the world through postcard mail
Overworked,underpaid

Taking the same road
To the same place
For days on end…
Caged,in the same routine

Living in an outside jail
Losing track of the beauty made
Seeing the world through postcard mail
Overworked,underpaid

Just keep smiling
There will always be another sunset on the horizon
Just keep tryin'
One day we'll be sitting,looking out on the ocean...

Sometimes the not knowing still haunts me
Maybe I still dont know where I'm going

I've been almost everywhere
Had it all,lost some more
Almost drowned by the bottle
Made some friends by the shots

I Got you out of my mind
Had someone in sight
I know now it wasn't my time

Love is like a puzzle
Not all pieces will fit together
At times some might get lost
A near perfect picture

Maybe your the missing piece packed in the wrong box

I will find my way
A step closer every day
Finding myself along the journey
Knowing I will find you somewhere someday…

Can it be like in a movie scene
Years can pass
But the love still lasts
In the end love redeemed

Background music playin'
While the scenes just showin'
Our separate lives
As the years gone past

Its easy to know me
Harder to hold me
Tougher to love
Hopefully impossible to forget

never lost contact
but drifted away
till another day
when where older and wiser

it's easy to know me
harder to hold me

I've got some random blues
A feeling that I wanna lose
So help me!!
Help me, through this groove

Cause baby its you
Its you that can carry me through
Worried about the rain
Sometimes I'm worried 'bout our glue

But then I see the sun shining
Shining through the rain like your smile
Clearing the skies
And clearing my mind

Cause I'm tired, tired of this random blues

Maybe its me?
Maybe you should just let me be
We can't have that now, can we?

remember the good times
forget about the Sad nights
find the peace In your heart
when you lOok to the stars

when the Rain starts pouRing' down
and the sun doesn't shine
when You've lost your smile
learn to dance in the rain

Fight for what yOu believe
foRget about those who deceive
be the best wherever you are
your Smile can bring joy to a sTrangers heart

I remember the first day we met
our Last goodbye i wilL never forget
as tHe time goes by
life gOes on

become a better person
and the rest wilL follow
if its meant to be
DIffereNt  paths will cross aGain

even if its nOt
life goes oN

You take a ****
Maybe even crack a joke
The dull comes alive
Music becomes a door
To another world,another place
Losing track of time when you hear that bass

Problems seem to find solutions, that might just be crazy enough to work
Flashbacks on a movie reel runs across your mind.  Back to that door

Of possibilities

— The End —
