I forget that the sun shines every day In a part of the world somewhere I’ve lived in the gray for so ******* long The nothingness is more than I can bear It’s rained so much I wonder if I’m drowning I can’t seem to climb out and save myself Every breath takes more effort than I have All I’m good for is gathering dust on a shelf But when the skies clear and the day glows I can blossom and flourish like a flower I will be bright and beautiful I can be my own power
