Living in a world where anything flies,
Growing up, we all aim to desensitize
Getting used to murderous lies
No longer do we hold true to family ties.

Where has all the love gone?
"Where have all the flowers gone?"

Love is lost, if ever it was at all
Through it all we must grow strong and tall
BE the change you wish to see,
Show the world what a human should be.

Bring back the light, the love, the joy.

Find a lead on the peace and the compassion,
Search out the unique and the exception,
Trust, respect, and common sense seem to be for ration.
Young and old, participate in the deception.

Staring, dreaming, wishing, doing,
Up up and away my wishes will fly,
Just keep going, just keep pursuing,
High high high up into the open sky.

Flying free, a whisper on the breeze,
Floating, soaring, diving, just being.
High enough to see the droplets freeze,
Into rainbow shimmering crystals of ice.

Mountains, lakes, millions of ecosystems.
A bird's eye view of the world big and small,
Can you hear it? The whole Earth hums
Through it all I stand, hopeful and tall.

My dreams and wishes will soon become a reality
Some have already, and I know this to be true
As sure as I know that to all there is a beautiful duality,
Yin and yang, a light and a darkness to every living thing.

Let your dreams fly and your wishes come true,
The world and life as we know it is all in perception
And the only one controlling your happiness is you.
So wish big and do not stop until you reach your dreams.

Inside out and upside down,
Tossing, turning, flipping 'round,
Forehead creased in a solemn frown
Right, center, left and back to ground

Your thoughts seem to drown,
in the scary place of dreams,
all decked out in greys and brown,
everything is seldom as it seems.

Haunted souls wail a weary tune,
Echoing off the cavern walls,
But here at last comes the sweet boon,
A beautiful croon to lay your mind to rest.

Rainbows and unicorns, cotton candy clouds,
Mountains of cookies and ice cream and cake,
Sunshine and happiness the world enshrouds,
If only if only this innocence would last.

But the day becomes reality and the alarm beeps,
The little girl awakens with a heavy heart,
Travesty and desolation are common in the deeps
of her mind, her soul, her weariness masked.

But lights will come on and love will come soon,
The battle will end and the storm will pass,
She just has to hold on and look at the moon,
Make wishes to the man of the moon and believe.
