inside, my camera is watching. memorizing my view of earth, though my eye is stained. ambitions are not where they should be. out of focus - there;s too much fantasy, here. within hides the dreamer.

a revelation was left behind us, lost without a cry. it was a silent lullaby & i;m waiting for the healer.

i want to change it.

the world is like a shiny diamond, the way it glitters if you polish it right. but if the light should turn & leave you blinded, just take the dream, take a breath & give it one more try.

things have changed, but still it;s the same old story. friends get hurt but no one is to blame. time has passed, but the troubles seem to stay. things don;t end but no one really cares.

the rain has started to fall & her feet are getting too heavy. she;s looking back again. things she never thought could be, were true. peering through the rain. her eyes will never shine again.

but i don;t want to be a rose. i don;t want to flower pale pink, but flower scarlet, flower gold. & have no thorns to distance me, but be bright as yellow, warm as yellow.

even if i;m shouting, even if i;m shouting here inside. even if i;m shouting, do you see that i;m wanting, that i want to be so, so bright. bright as yellow, warm as yellow.

music: abandoned pools; monster
mood: muted
