A song i'm working on, i'm a serious amateur at songwriting so im proud of it, it's my first complete song.
You have nothing going on in your mind
A clear painted picture of pavement and two yellow lines
You don't know where to go, where to run, where to hide
Life feels like sitting below high voltage power lines that are
Sprouting in the countryside, lasting long after you die
Rusting slowly like an forgotten carnival ride
No sleep, 2 am looking at the stars
Funny thing is, you have no idea who you are
But you seem so small, you seem so small
You climbed the tree
Branch by Branch, hand by hand, a fistful of leaves, a headful of dreams
You couldnt reach the top, i cant say why except for
every step you made you stopped, when you made progress you dropped
you got confused went up then down, broke a branch and fell to the ground
all confused inside and out, the best way out just walk away
or maybe starting over, but not today
your too worked out its better just to stay
its just another day, the same as the rest
where you have nothing on your mind
except yellow lines and power lines.
