"Emotional Confusion"

I tip them upside down

I throw them on the ground

It's the only way I can look at them clearly.

 

When they're right in my face

Everything seems out of place

And I can't seem to understand them sincerely.

 

When they fall apart

It damages my heart

And I have to put them all back together.

 

To read them right

They have to be in plain sight

So I can interpret the future weather.

 

What I'm talking about

Brings upon some doubt

That's hiding in the back of my mind.

 

But when I lay them straight

I can predict my fate

And the truth I will know, and can find.

 

Many things are applicable

And possibly despicable

To what I'm trying so hard to explain.

 

But really what it is--

The answer to this quiz

Is that my emotions are difficult to preordain.

 

So I'll look at the sky

And release them to fly

Because that is the best thing I can do.

 

Let them go free

And just let it all be

Then they will be easier to construe.
