maybe i dream
too much
maybe i'm too clichΓ©
like what you say
i don't know if you regard it
as such
but i've learnt to pay no heed
i don't care

for what good it is i know i have
something that you don't
i have a remedy i have
my land of sunsets do you?
i'll look to the horizons
if i want to give in to death i won't
i'll try to stay high
like my balloon

every time i lose myself to tears
i'll close my eyes
and i will see my land of sunsets
what good are
goodbyes?
maybe i'll find something that i won't fight against

strangers say i am clothed with
mystery
i don't know if it's true but
what do they know about me?
friends tell me to smile more and
do their best to cheer
but they're wasting their time it's all in vain because
how can i when i am veiled with tears i have.. so many fears

what is life? for what it's worth i
will try to put myself out there
i'll try to live a life..
just smile and say "thank you i'm doing great"

now it's the sixth hour and the sunset is
shining on my window
casting its brilliance and shadow in the sky and it's
so beautiful as if cupid hit my heart with bow and arrow

i close my eyes again and the light fell on me
i want to be a sunset too
but i'm happy just because i have that faraway place here
in my heart but now, until next time boo.
a.v.//land of sunsets
