For Awhile

Forget the signs, read my emotions
earth crumbles, joy is scars
fear overrules your body
a complete fool made of yourself
tampering the arcane of wisdom
later you`ll see who`s wrong
they or you
your lack of appreciation
is not helping you at all
what they've done for you?
keep looking around
for them you are just a puppet
hide your identity
for awhile
it`s not time yet...

Carefree Into A New Day

it`s like running away
like chasing the brightest day
like waking up in your eyes
it`s like a blossoming leaf in may

it`s like never knowing about the past
stepping light and fast
facing that horizon
facing that new place at last

tears burning our eyes like fire
the wind commanding our desires
traveling an upward trail
chasing dreams that`ll never expire

lifting ourselves from the floor
watching the lights shine on the door
running away like if never to return
stripped from worries and naked our soul
