I never saw an ugly thing
For the colors of hope make it more beautiful
The ground that told me to stay firm
I should have known first that i wasn't drifting
Seeing you with all that vacant smiles
I played most parts & myriad too
The kind of faith that Jesus told me
Lifts people from their tiresome roofs
An ever-watchful soul, I am
Trying not to fall and losing it
The kind of chocolate that no one dig
Because falling to pieces is not that even sweet
I have changed my cries in order to laugh
To light your back with memory of make believe
So long, my past, i have traveled through
As i endure the damage that you didn't have to take
Because leaves do not only fall when winter is coming
They only wither until it only hits the ground
It was that kind of cloud that pours rain
We both knew we all have to run away
The fact that i can only be your sweetest slumber
A love that should, and would, and could have been.
