Flowers bloom
The sun shines bright
The outside seems alright
But you're there
All bottled up inside
Storms don't last
But yours felt like
Clouds of dust following you
All year round
All you wanted was to shine
But all you see is their squinting eyes
So you stayed behind
Waiting for the crowd to be kind
So you wished
If there was another universe
Where your feet wasn't chained to the ground
You started your first day
Thinking of new beginning
But you stayed inside your head
And ended up running
"Maybe I couldn't"
Strangers and friends
Didn't differ that much
Gone faster than the wind
They wouldn't look back

But you're there
All bottled up inside
Storms don't last
But yours felt like
Clouds of dust following you
All year round
All you wanted was to shine
But all you see is their squinting eyes
So you stayed behind
Waiting for the crowd to be kind
So you wished
If there was another universe
Where your feet wasn't chained to the ground
You started your first day
Thinking of new beginning
But you stayed inside your head
And ended up running
"Maybe I couldn't"
Strangers and friends
Didn't differ that much
Gone faster than the wind
They wouldn't look back
