The world is a beautiful place to be
Sitting quietly under the candy sky
The grass against my toes carries the whispers of the wind
Where the birds and bees fly so swiftly without sin

As the clouds become dark so does the sky
Changing from bubblegum to liqourice with the sun's dying wish
But I hold onto those last few hues
The spectacular purples and blues
What a wonderful day to lie under the candy sky

There's so much gloom I see lately
In my body and all around me
A plane flies overhead, its humming says "I'm alive"
Sometimes the sun can shade the bruises when the light needs a place to hide

But it's over now, it's the end of the day
The flowers hug my arms as I hear the wind say
"It's time to go now, no longer shall  you cry,
There's a better place for you than under the candy sky"
