The Sadness

Opening my eyes again
This morning I wake with dreams in my head
I'm hollowed out by the Sadness
My head is all messed up just thinking about it all

Trying to pull myself back up
The hope is crumbling – I can't open up
Can't run from the blue face in the mirror
"You have to try – you have to care – for me"

Soaring with my head in the clouds
But that sinking feeling is pulling me down...

We can't use that moment's death
As an excuse for letting it rest
A sea of tears, they well in my eyes
A mountain of sorrow – how I would take flight!

O'er the hills and far away
My imagination heads off each day
I'd turn another page in my life...
The moment says, "We must talk – it's time"

Trudging through the mire
Just to be pulled into line
As different as horses to unicorns
I can feel his disappointment
"My faith in me is fading away!"

I was the boy – but now nothing
I moved a mountain in front of 'we'
Although I tried to run away
I feel I'm falling back each day
Return the boy
