Why do I feel so empty?
Why do I feel so blue?
My memories I cant remember instead,
My mind's fogged up by you.

The waves are rolling,
To the shore and back.
The ocean is roaring,
The waves launch one last attack.

The sun goes down,
The sky explodes.
I let the waves carry me,
And followed the ocean flow.

Wherever they take me,
I will find my muse.
Hey it doesn't matter if I die,
I've got nothing to lose.

He couldn't just let me go,
He dragged me down with him.
He made sure I lost too,
And now the future looks pretty dim.
~
He looked at me in the eye,
My morale fell,
He grinned and said,
*See you in hell.

Give me wings let me fly,
Let me reach the sky.
When I go I'll see you later,
So long, alligator.

A homeless man once said to me,
My life's ****,
But I'm not complaining.
Don't be like me and wait for inspiration,
Be it.
Go and grow you own wings.

So I did.

I flew up to the sky and saw the ocean was blue,
The sky makes it that way but no one defines you.

I came back to Earth.

I came to the waters edge,
I saw people's dreams being washed away,
So I followed the sun,
And lived another day.

I left the ocean.

As I circulated the world I finally understood,
The people who live life to the fullest,
Are the ones who live it with nothing to lose.

My teacher said I had a lot of potential,
My friends thought I was hiding talent.
A few years later I soon found out,
That I could have been,
A fearsome dragon,
A blazing phoenix,
A savage shark,
A true leader.
*But I didn't.

Like lightning never strikes the same spot twice,
Like two stories are never the same.
Be who you are,
Don't be ashamed.
