I want to escape reality
Re-create my fantasies
Slip away, with the breeze
Track down an old memory

Will I find new discoveries
Reaffirm your trust in me
React to your blatant tease
Or lay myself down to sleep

Wake up, and sense relief
Hear your words and feel at ease
Do what’s right just to appease
From a novice’s expertise

They say good things come in threes
But will I let it get the best of me
Turn myself into a freak
Or will I find what it is I seek

You may choose to call me weak
Judge the company I keep
Run from danger, hide and seek
No more to be said as talk is cheap

Sow my oats I intend to reap
Fulfill promises I try to keep
Settle down, near a creek
In the moment, mine to seize

No more rules, I turn my cheek
Do or don’t, as I so please
End up arrested, handcuffed by police
Or walk the line till I succeed
