I'm on a different continent now,
Seeing eyes through a different world,
This place is so loud with personality,
Yet so quiet with adventure.
I'm in a new world now,
Fighting the thoughts of the Old,
It's as if you are around every corner,
Yet I feel I've left you behind.
I've inhaled the eclectic air again,
Green with distraction I happily forget you,
Words do not describe the anguish I feel,
Words only give the illusion of happiness.
I swallowed fire water last night,
I realize that you did this to me,
Concrete is mixing with my blood,
As my heart grows heavy with remorse.
I see through new glasses,
where colors collide and action is clear,
This world is thick with new hope,
Yet I find myself still wanting to hope for The Old.

I'm on a different continent now,
Seeing eyes through a different world,
This place is so loud with personality,
Yet so quiet with adventure.
I'm in a new world now,
Fighting the thoughts of the Old,
It's as if you are around every corner,
Yet I feel I've left you behind.
I've inhaled the eclectic air again,
Green with distraction I happily forget you,
Words do not describe the anguish I feel,
Words only give the illusion of happiness.
I swallowed fire water last night,
I realize that you did this to me,
Concrete is mixing with my blood,
As my heart grows heavy with remorse.
I see through new glasses,
where colors collide and action is clear,
This world is thick with new hope,
Yet I find myself still wanting to hope for The Old.
