In the Sun

And yet again I’m in the debris
Under collapsed walls of conjecture and history
When you worry it all, you worry yourself small
And make it feel like you can do nothing at all
There’s only one time you’ve got to live
It’s called the present, the here, the now
If you don’t believe me
Let me try to show you how
Yes the future is where we can be
Better tomorrows come from productive todays
But it’s not here till it is so don’t let it come crashing down
Unless you’d rather be stuck with a frown
Yes the past somehow seems to last
Over and over we remember what could have been had
But as life goes on you’ll only get farther away from them
So don’t make now another past you regret
For too long I’ve laid here in this debris
For too long I’ve tried and couldn’t see
I’ve got a chance to rise from it all
It may not be perfect but I’ll take it
I’m sick of being small
Those times spent under it all
Make me feel I’ve lived a thousand years
When it’s just you in a box with darkness
When it’s just you in a box with fears
I’ve come to realize it didn’t all happen at once
Slowly and slowly I’ve made and rebuilt walls
You think they keep you safe, you think they’re there to help
But for every time they’ve fallen in, were you glad you had them?
Stop spending all your time on palaces of possibility
And grand pyramids of days come and gone
There’s now all around you,
Now as far as the eye can see
Get out of this mess you’re in
And make yourself a worthy history
I’m ready to break these shackles
I’ll figure out why I was in them later
If I actually want to see clearly
I’d be better off in the sun
"All that glitters is gooolllddd..."

Till I've Found Today
04:01

On my way back
By these breadcrumbs of mine
Chasing them backward
Ever lesser the time
Sometimes it feels
Like my memories come to me
In an instant
The more I learn
The more I seem to remember
Trying to figure out what I had
When I didn’t know what it was
A storehouse full of moments
With nothing but because
Revelations
Empty Stations
Is anybody else on this ride?
I got on and spread my legs
In this cabin till I’ve found today
Inside I’ve found an archive
Of things I’ve lived and held close
Though never understood
Like something hid beneath a flower’s pedals
Waiting to bloom when the sun was true
The attendant of circumstance
Always brings a meal
The conductor of reality
Keeps us between the rails
They never asked for my ticket
Because the voyage is mine
The baggage I brought on
Seems little now
The view outside the window
Seems not to matter to progression
Onward and forward
As I’ve learned that lesson
Up the hills and over the mountains
Will and wisdom know few bounds
Life can be stingy enough
But the good deeds will come round
From above there seems but steam
A cloud of what I try to mean
The bumps I feel remind me still
Of what little can be to those once ill
Through the cabins
Eyeing more
There’s plenty yet
To be in store
On my way back
By these breadcrumbs of mine
Going through life
Ever lesser the time
