Peter Pan

you look in my eyes
and hope to find peace
but you only find
pieces of me
that i've scattered 'round
clever at best
silent at worst
and confined to the ground
i'm looking for you
you circle the sun
and land on the moon in the dark
i'm ashamed
i take my life lightly
am i in your way
still where I began
well i hate to tell you
i'm not superman
i can't fly
like you seem to
were you the one who invented the sky
or are strings attached
well maybe i just shouldn't ask
i struggle with sleep
i wrestle my thoughts
while you paint the stars on the ceiling for me
i have nothing left
at the end of my days
where my dreams end there you are
perfectly beautiful you are
well i hate to tell you
i'm not peter pan
i can't fly
not like you do
you were the one who created the night
and the pixie dust
well maybe i should learn to believe
