Into the meadow

Into the meadow we run together, 

Faces shining in the sun.

Beneath the starry sky we wander,

'Til what we seek is done.

We play and we laugh

We joke and we splash

In the waters of a shimmering lake.

We'll never get older

So why not live here forever

Beyond what time can take?

 

There's nothing to prove

In this wilderness with you

Where being solidly me is enough.

Anything can happen

This forest is magic

As we escape from society's bluff.

 

I wonder aloud

Why what happened played out

And you're there to dry my tears.

We talk me through it

Because I think I blew it

But you'll stay, right, through the years?

You'll keep me company

Where no one else can see

And you'll protect me as you say?

 

With a quick nod,

The rest of the world is gone,

And I know this won't be our last day.

    Noise

    Every night

    In my head

    Noise

    Every day

    Swirling

    Twirling

    Dipping and diving

    New lows and new highs

    Noise

    Everywhere

    All the time

    When their nagging talking ugh

  • Sailing

    If I could sail

    I'd sail away

    Far away

    I'd sail away from this place

    But I wouldn't go to another

    I would stay in between

    Refusing to stay

    Refusing to go

    If I could sail
