I’ve thought about a new life, something that would be like,
A light that I could follow, a new reason to be whole,
So far I’m so far out to sea, I doubt that you can see me,
But really I’m only in my bed, drowning in my fucked up head,
And I couldn’t tell you if I’m happy,
Or the reason I’m so sad,
I’m out of focus on everything,
I’m sorry mom and dad,
I’m missing what gave me meaning,
What showed me what life is like,
Now that’s all across the ocean,
But I promise I will try, I’ll try…
One day I’ll be free, the day you quit thinking about me,
Until that point in time I’ll pretend nobody’s worrying,
You’re love was like the sky to me,
Always the limit and impossible to reach,
And it leaves me looking up at you, lacking parts of speech.
If you want to listen to the song, here’s a link to a stream: You’re Love Was Like the Sky To Me (limiting and impossible to reach)
that is really powerful and expressive
i esp. like ‘your love was like the sky to me’
