We dream of lofty places, Our castles in the sky. We dream we’ll someday reach them, And find them if we try. But can we ever reach them, In there places way up high? Will we ever find our way there, To our castles where they lie? I’ve been trying for some time now, But I sometimes wonder why. I doubt I’ll ever get there, It's more likely I'll sooner die.
They say that the grass is always greener on the other side. You’re on the other side, my castle in the sky.
Don't leave me here alone now, We've been waiting together so long, Don't let it all have been a mistake now, Don't tell me that we've both been wrong.
Leave me outside in the rain, That's where I belong. Curled up in a ball, Trying to stay warm, As I wait here on your doorstep. But what am I waiting for? You've already let someone else in. I sit here in the rain crying, And the clouds are crying with me, As I sit here all alone. Where should I go? I know no other door. Yours has already opened and closed, And I'm still out here in the rain, Leaving me with nowhere to go, Because I know no other door. I'm sitting here in the rain, Alone with my tears, Alone with my pain. At least I have the clouds to cry with me.
Why do this? Why do that? Why not do whatever I want? I don't want to to lose any more time. I feel like I'm wasting it, Every moment of every day. I should be doing something that matters. Stray from this same old meaningless way, And do what I want. Forget about this, Forget about that, Do whatever I want to, And everything would be so much better. At least that's what I believe.
Sit here, stand here, lie here, be here. Whatever you want, because I'm here. Take comfort little child, you are safe here. I'll talk, I'll listen, whatever you want, because I'm here. Take comfort little child, because no matter what, you're safe here. Safe to sit here, stand here, lie here, be here. Whatever you want, because I'm here. Take comfort little child, because nothing can hurt you while you're here. Take comfort, I am here.
Everything I do is in preparation, For that which lies ahead, I'm preparing for what awaits me, And I'll continue until I'm dead.
We never concentrate on a moment, Because each moment is spent on the next, Nothing we do is done for what it is, But rather, It's done for all the rest.
[1] I want to submerge my head, In a bucket of cool, clean water, And when I raise my face from it, I want to see a new world around me.
[2] I want to go to bed one night, And fall asleep under my warm covers, But when the morning comes, I want to wake up in a different bed, And I want to open my eyes to a fresh day.
[3] I want to lie down in the grass, And close my eyes on the dark clouds, I want to feel the firm ground beneath me, And when I open my eyes, I want to see a new sky, A sky full of different clouds and a bright sun.
[4] I want to open my front door, My bare feet on the cool wood floor, And look out on a new front lawn, I want to look out on a different place.
[5] I want to lie down on my bed, And I want to play my favorite album, And as the music begins to play, I want to hear new sounds, I want to hear fresh songs.
[6] I want to walk outside in the rain, To let the heavy water drops fall on my skin, As I stand alone with my eyes closed, I want to feel like a new person, As the rain drips off of me, cleansing me.
Well, we got a bunch of rain last night, and it flooded my town. At the moment, I'm kind of stuck, because the road my house is on, is down in either direction. Everything is flooded, and everything is washed out, I don't know when it's all going to be fixed. Here are the pictures I took.
When I look at you, I can see two different people, You could be either one, But you cannot be both. You could be the one I want, Or you could be the one I need.
If you're the one I want, You're not the one I love, If you're the one I want, I don't really care about you, And if you're the one I want, You're the one I can have.
If you're the one I need, though, You are the one I love, If you're the one I need, You are the one I care about, But if you're the one I need, You're the one I can't have.
