I almost see it now.
I can see the clouds.

They're so close to my hand,
though I know that they're not coming down.
But I will soon rise beyond.

All I'll ever do is wish, that all I've seen, could be fixed so easily.
I sleep, and dream about all that could have been.
Like a family, all around me, so happily.
Yet all I've known, is that in this world, you simply need someone to set you free.
But I'm not sure, they will be there for me.
So I quietly laugh, and silently cry, I hide my emotions as others pass by. Because I'm waiting for the clouds to form, and take me away.
Somewhere I'll be glad, for all the things I had, and someone to show me what it all means.
So my dreams shine bright.

Brighter than they are now.
Brighter days, than now.

As they take me away, tears streak.
It will be hard, and none of that can be changed.
But it's alright, I will be in a better place.
I'll see you soon, on the other side.
Where our family lasts, and our dreams come true.
And war, may not have taken me from you. My tears rain down from the clouds like rain.
So when you see the rain, would you smile for me?
