Come find me
Or send for me
Then grab me up
And take me
Help me to
Let myself be free

Now let's tear our shoes off
Squeeze out of all our constraints
Drive into the country
Then leave our car to rust
This path we took
Shall soon be overgrown


Hold my hands
And hold my heart
Steady in this world.
You are holding on
To figments of your imagination
But I am real.


I think of you
When I'm alone.
You're beautiful
And I will be strong.
I'll hold you in my mind
But I won't hold you in my arms.

Unravel the layers
I have wrapped
Around me
Thick wool between
The world and me

Cover my eyes
Calm me down
Clear my vision
So I can see
The teal, the fuchsia, the neon green

All the electricity
Of a world
Where we can wear our
Comfortable black and gray
And can't escape color

The beauty of a world
Where nothing is solid
And our security
Comes from
Constant change

I don't understand
How a calendar page
Can affect the way
I perceive these days

Senior year's halfway done
And finally some sun
Has broken through the haze

I thought that any
Amount of time
Would be too long
If I couldn't move on

It seems that nothing's wrong
The pain is gone
With little noise

I've lived the worst
I've built my raft
I'm gonna float away
With four words to say

Before the end of May
After a lot more gray
"Let the time flow"

Maybe I can go
Through the motions
Of normal life
Waiting for paradise

What do I hope to find
I could maybe be blind
And fade away

But I'm made more real
When I stop to feel
Don't pretend to live life
When I need to heal
Work through these feelings
The way I see things
Just let the time go
And everything it brings
I'm on my own schedule
Even though I'm in school
If you want me to work
Know I'm a broken tool

It might take months
I might not be the same
In fact I feel the change
Adding emotions to my range

Now where's the pain
I know it's not in vain
If it returns.

That moment when you realize
you've gotten rid of everyone
who makes you unhappy
except yourself...
...Crap. What happens now?
Hahaha.

I live for those moments when
I'm just sitting there
And then understanding
Warps the world before my eyes
Just for a second.
And my head becomes a slightly better place
To be.

Where to focus my attention?
If focused on anyone
It
Hurts.

Simply free
When I play the keys
The piano always responds to me

You won't say a word
As I guess what you won't show,
I wonder if you know I know

It's not music
If you won't sing those lines
You're not making me feel alright

I want to run away

I'm just sitting at the piano
While I try not to cry
I need to hear a few more lies

It was definitely easier
Before I saw some of your ways
Life was music everyday

Now I really have to fight
As I try again to listen
The silence starts to drift in

I have to keep running away
