Emotions spinning
like a wheel
Never knowing
how I'll feel

Sometimes distressed
or maybe melancholy
Other times elated
or feeling down right jolly

Go from happy to sad
inside of a minute
Looking for a fight
not caring who's in it

I went to see a doctor
he told me I was ill
The way to feel better
just take this little pill

It makes me relax
and helps me keep my cool
But when I take it
I just sit there and drool

I had to make a choice
I'll live life on the wheel
I might not have control
but at least I'll be able to feel
Her bare feet were tougher than her soul
They ran through the woods all day
Snapping twigs, relentlessly killing the life below.
Little bare feet that raced each other through these halls
She grew older and she grew wiser
Gaining strength from every fall.
Little girl, now not so little
Chasing new little feet
Through the house and out the door
Adapting to this new wild beat.
Why
when they're gone
the images linger on
and on,
it makes me wonder
when they're gone

echoes that reverberate

'time to get up or you'll be late,
wash behind your ears,
go and play,
dry your tears and
we shall go to
Morecambe bay'

pictures that lighten
that brighten
are right on
the button and

all have a say in it
somewhere in the way of it
and it
goes on and
on and even
when they're gone
they become the

wandering echoes that
move slowly across
my day.
