Maybe I’m too sick from all this weather Maybe I’m too sick to leave my bed
Too sick to fathom now and then or never Too sick to fathom thoughts I’ve never said And maybe I’m just sick of those I run to
Or running through the slopes inside my mind Maybe it’s from what I didn’t tell you
Honey, I’m just not the telling kind But I’m
Laying in the park on a sunny day Willing my thoughts away
Who thought that they would stay Thumbing abandoned byways for a ride Take me for a drive
A risk to feel alive I want to feel alive
Maybe we’re alone because we want it Abandoned when we’re wondering why we’re sad Life is long but we’re so young and haunted
By normality and the things we’ve never had
I’m sitting in a room with all my worries
But my soul is too full to be afraid
If I drop it all and stop and do not hurry
I need only me to get away
But today
I’m laying in the park on a sunny day Willing my thoughts away
Who thought that they would stay Thumbing abandoned byways for a ride Take me for a drive
A risk to feel alive I want to feel alive
Maybe I’m just sick of pretending Today could be the day my life begins
I find poetry in shadows unending
I find poetry in soil and in skin
But I’m
Laying in the park on a sunny day Willing my thoughts away
Who thought that they would stay Thumbing abandoned byways for a ride
Take me for a drive A risk to feel alive
I want to feel alive
