Sitting on rooftops
Feet hanging off the edge
Watching your falling tear drops
Land on earths ledge
-
Disappearing from sight
The wind dries your face
In the middle of the night
Alone in this quiet place
-
Listening to cars drive by
Breathing in the stars
Staring into the sky
Void from jail cell bars
-
For you have the power to jump
For a second you're truly free
Forgetting your throats lump
For what feels like eternity
-
Peaceful cool night air
Brushing through your hair
Combing away your fears
Wiping up those tears
-
Alone forever alone
Staring into life's abyss
The wind gives you your goodnight kiss
Too bad life's not like this
-
Wishing to stay there forever
Breathing not thinking why
But there's only so much earth can endeavor
Before you're forced to leave the sky
-
Take it in while you can
Soon you'll be back on the ground
Like a chained Peter Pan
Forgetting the peace you'd once found
-
