Long ago I was told you can’t hold on to joy and grow old. Where were you when I walked home alone? Don’t wonder why I have not been able to smile or grin from ear to ear. I have not been happy in years.
It’s a feeling that dies in the summer and haunts me in the winter. I still have not conquered my fears.
Don’t wonder why I traded care for fear, It’s a feeling I blame on the past, one that left tangles in my hair. Take life for granted and watch it glide by. Mine passed me by and left me with both my hands tied.
It’s true when they say I’m lying to myself, I’m flipping through pages looking for help.
Skies will transform, I cannot say I’m content. You say I’ve changed, well I have not found myself yet.
