Home

Its too late for you to make me stay,
my bags are packed our minds been made

You'll be dearly missed ever so, don't get me wrong
But I've been trapped in these stonewalls for too long

Call it the next chapter, a new beginning, whatever you want
The truth is I can't wait no more, these walls are haunted

I will think back on you, hell I'll probably even cry for you
A million paths to choose and I'm screamed at to move


I've been space bound for far too long
Gravity pull me back down
These steps I've traced are played in songs
The mistakes I've made I'll leave at home

You're Time

Short minded, forks in the road
Your race, Hare or the Toad?

Either path they make clear for you
Forget them and take your own


Happy as your minds made up to be
Or just as free as you want to believe

Look towards it anyway you need
Our castle in the clouds create upon positivity


The debt were in, the oil in the ocean
To the bombs "they" be exploding

Life gave you reason to be
While "men" keep us hoping


We have the power, our minds to short to notice
Pop cultures got your head in the abyss

So let bygones be bygones
Or your time will be missed

Rainbows in the Distance

Troubled eyes, shoes are untied.
They won't catch me looking down.

Whether ill-fate or karma.
A mere painting in the clouds.

A settle disappointment,
As sun showers fall,
To a rainbow in the distance.


Many thoughts upon rock bottom.
Feet sore by treading ground.

Don't let our books knock off the shelf.
History in pages never to be found.

Eyes lie space and time,
As may have been missed in haste,
A rainbow in the distance.


In an orbit which circles the sun.
Naive to eyes inside the box.

Immense universe in drastic change.
Intertwined in such small thought.

Goodbye old soul,
Hello unknown,
Still be Rainbows in our distance.
