Wouldn't it be like me?
-------------------------------------------

wouldn’t it be just like me to stand in the snow and cry as the pureness of it all covers the ground and sky. and couldn’t it be that the world around us today is just a dream within a dream? is the coma one goes into some day of our life just an escape from this reality? nature is full of deer and bears which rip and tear poor critters that couldn’t find a place in Bambi when the taxi comes and death is the driver do we ask him to stop to sightsee? And wouldn’t it be like me To ignore you forever Act like it’s nothing when it always was When the sky really does fall Do we run around screaming Or sue someone for mental health damage Goblins at the door and vampires under the rug Is it any wonder why We laugh at the thought of bombs Would we dance together one last time So we can again show trueness That we could only find in ourselves? Wouldn’t it be like you To keep on fighting for something you Never really believed in? And couldn’t it be like me To keep on going Even when the sand has gone way over When the kittens sing That song of death and birth Do we understand what they say What was it all worth This blackness and this pain Or was it just a speck of dust in the eye And when we get born again Would we find each other again Did you recall how I felt before The world would end someday In all it’s smoke or tears In our beds and under the sea They walk down the hall Hand in hand with only each other And yet everyone A child gives a cry in the night Another monster at the door And when she grows she will learn That monsters come in all shapes and forms And what doesn’t kill or break you Will make you stronger someday And yet once you allow it to hurt you In such a soulful way…. Maybe you allowed it to take over you And you can never win
