Clouds fill my head
Clouds keep me warm
Warm in the darkenss
Warm in the rain
Rain chills my bones
Rain washes the pain
Pain from all the hate
Pain from all the lies
Lies gave me drugs
Lies are my monster
Monster that hides
Monster that screams
Screams for the light
Screams for an escape
Escape the fog
Escape to my ocean
Ocean cold and unforgiving
Ocean deep and silent
Silent are my cries
Silent are my thoughts
Thoughts of another life
Thoughts of home
Home under themoon
Home under the night
Night showing stars bright
Night that turns to day
Day of sun and light
Day of running free
Free of the leaves
Free to shed my tears
Tears that wash the memories
Tears that keep me safe
Safe in the trees
Safe from the storm
Storm will come again
Storm will leave this place
Place of hope and help
Place free of me
Me and the cool grass
Me and my dreams
Dreams of becoming new
Dreams in silence
Silence wraps my life
Silence is my skin
Skin destined to shine
Skin that is mine
Mine for today
Mine for now
