On overcast days When the clouds block my sun rays And the shadows are away from the day. I wonder about my pessimistic ways And will I ever get out of this phase. A phase where my mind is in a haze, Bound and trapped in a cage. In the cage is a bird that sings Songs of mental freedom, peace, love and other things That helps bring the joy that life brings.
On overcast days When the clouds block my sun rays My mind scrambles to find the right way Like a mouse in a maze. My soul is ablaze And on these days I can feel the gaze of God And his eternal adversary. It makes me daring and wary Of the demons that haunt me When my visions of success Are right before me. Displays that leave me in daze.
This is what it's like. This is what it's like. This is what it's like When my demons leave me at night And arrive strapped like medieval knights On overcast days.
On overcast days When the clouds block my sun rays I stare at the sky all day. Wondering if the Angels Partied the **** night away And these clouds are the aftermath Of their mass party. Probably celebrating the coming Of the end of mankind. While I'm here stuck on earth In a mind different from other minds. With recycled souls brainwashed and blind That has lost all sense of time. Where will we go When this speck of time Ceases to exist and these words No longer rhyme in a design To speak to you? I have hope when the sky is blue And feel lost when it is grey.
This is what it's like. This is what it's like. This is what it's like When my demons leave me at night And arrive strapped like medieval knights On overcast days.
When and if it rains I hope it washes away the pain Of this strange stage And give me hope To keep my head up Through these wicked times And overcast days.
