I Wasn't Sure How To End It So...


I used to believe that when I walked down the street
Mountains would move out my way.
And I used to believe that the people I'd meet
Would listen to what I would say.
And I used to think that the sun and the trees
Were there just to brighten the world.
While I used to think of the flowers and the bees
And watched them all as I'd twirl.
And my skirt would fly out and my hair would fly too
And above me the sky would blur
And my heart would beat fast until my cares were few
But I was just one little girl.

And then I believed that the sun was a lie
And I hid from the light.
And it was then I believed that childhood could die
And I cried late into the night.
I refused to believe that people could honestly
Enjoy my company
Because all I'd known was hurting alone
And receiving no sympathy.
And I'd haunt the streets and walk off beat
I thought someone tore up my drum,
But then I woke up, watched the dark retreat
Found I was part of a sum.

And so now the sun shines and I accept it's light,
But I know the truth of night.
So I be happy and be confident
But remember bad times I've spent.
Because we need both night and day,
So life doesn't go either way.
It has it's ups and downs,
But get back up and turn around
And flip off the way you came.

You're welcome.


love,
Rex

forever and ALWAYS.
