[hometext] => Its actually meant to be happy...sorta. Its my view on the world, full of people that are mostly sad and unable to deal with it. I pity them. I used to be that way, but I found out how to break my chains. Marijuana. ^_^
[bodytext] => I keep the world locked up In a cage, on a shelf, hidden behind The secrets and lies I keep the world inside A prison, on a beach, secluded Away, away from the sands of time Nothing changes, nothing goes, Nothing comes, ebbs to and fro The people hang their shells up At the end of the day They relax and recline Unable to say Or to do Empty and without They wind down their lives With emptiness and lies Their world is their image They no longer take the passage Home and away To the place they can stay In peace with their mind In tune with their life They get up and put on their shell And lead lives they don't want They see the world through a locked window A window with bars A dream with stars A dream they can't reach And so they teach Each and next generation That life is sad and without hope And so it goes that life is that Sad and dreary unable to cope With the shells and the sheep Unable to keep hold of what it is What it wants, and what it means It ebbs and wains Slowly...slowly...trying in vein I let the world go free Free to fly Free to die I let the world soar To try and to want More and more To change and to grow To ebb to and fro Everything changes.....everything goes Everyone goes, and nobody knows [comments] => 1 [counter] => 188 [topic] => 34 [informant] => Dereku [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SongLyrics )
