waiting for a dream
opened wounds?
many things on my mind
to troubled to express
to lost to think
to confused to convey
i gave myself 10 days
any better?
i trick myself to believe that it is

happy birthday?
i don't know if i'll be happy for this one
i'm at that age...
no material possession can make me happier
with age comes more knowledge
i don't want to know anymore

last week
i remember
i walked outside in the morning
i plugged in my mp3 player
and listened to the first three notes
and sank into the deepest pit
i've never felt that way before
it became worse on the subway
so many people
yet i couldn't hold it
they began to look
but i couldn't stop
i took out my pencil
and started writing
the music made it continue
_______________________________________
i know what you're going through
i won't be the one that lets go of you
when you come back down
if you land on your feet
i hope you find a way to make it back to me
i don't know if i'll make it to my feet
without a hand
everything stays in my mind
feeling in a daze on the ground
feels like it's gonna give
life's too hard to live anymore
think i've had enough things too tough
i'm out the door
falling down what you gonna do?
standing on the top of the world tonite
no one's looking back at you
stand tall
it's going to be just fine
i'm holding on today
i would fall asleep
only in hopes of dreaming
i would spend my nights sleeping
instead of daydreaming
only if i knew
i would have a sweet dream tonite
sweet dreams.
