Long before my stomping grounds got trampled on |
|
I sat and felt the greatest song that every painter - every poet couldn't create. |
|
And words they opened doors from what my parents had wished for when the had a child and raised a kid that |
|
I came to this. |
|
And How good does life feel in times like this? |
|
And How good is my shot before |
|
I close my eyes and miss? |
|
These feelings exist. |
|
Let it rain on monday morning right before the world is awake |
|
I will ly there and just think about the weather. |
|
Let my blood beat from my chest and put my veins up to it's test |
|
I will breathe in and know what it feels to feel alive. |
|
I'm alive. |
|
About the time our tree house built fell on the lawn we sat and heard the first of songs that every rocking chair and shoe box would create. |
|
It's a world that's grown to be so careless with it's memories. |
|
Only benevolence can capture what |
|
I mean. But how good is this picture when the background's gone? |
|
When I still feel great about standing tall when everything went wrong, and |
|
I am all alone. |
|
Let it rain on monday morning right before the world is awake |
|
I will ly there and just think about the weather. |
|
Let my blood beat from my chest and put my veins up to it's test |
|
I will breathe in and know what it feels to feel alive. |
|
I'm alive. |
|
Let it rain on my rooftop so |
|
I can hear the sounds, of passing winds through blowing tree's that say "I'll see you around." |
|
The seasons can say things that |
|
I never can. |
|
These words describe nothing, when |
|
I come home again. |
|
Well I guess |
|
I must have lost it, in a line of my luck. |
|
It said "this is you're life now, and you're done with growing up." |
|
Well I missed my mark, and |
|
I miss those tree's, and |
|
I miss lying in bed tonight to picture these things. |
