Wishes and Shadows

And I, and I, and I, and I…

Repeating heartbeats, trapped in time,

Searching for a way, a way to unwind.

Wish I had some green, something to ease the ache,

It’s like a thunderstorm, every move I make.

These shadows in my mind, they whisper and they shout,

Can’t you take my hand? Let’s just get out.

Take me to a place where the pain don’t live,

Where the air is sweet and the night’s forgiving.

Raven birds take flight, they dance in the sky,

In a world of dreams, we can learn to fly.

Oh, and I really wish I had some money,

For a little piece of peace, oh so sweet and sunny.

But deep down I know, what my heart really needs,

Is a chance to get away, plant some hopeful seeds.

Lying to myself, in this den of despair,

Poe's whispering echoes, it lingers in the air.

What’s the point of flying if I’m grounded in fear?

Can’t you see, my love, the end is near?

Take me to a place where the pain don’t live,

Show me how to breathe, how to love and forgive.

These scenes in my head, painted dark and bright,

Let’s rewrite the story, turn wrong into right.

Oh, and I really wish I had some money,

For a little piece of peace, oh so sweet and sunny.

But deep down I know, what my heart really needs,

Is a chance to get away, plant some hopeful seeds.

And I’m drifting further in a sea of night,

Searching for the stars that can guide my flight.

Take my troubled heart, set it free, oh please,

In your arms, I find my ease.

And I, and I, and I, and I…

With you, I can fly, to the end of the sky,

Let’s escape the shadows, let’ is sweet and the night’s forgiving.

Embracing each moment, while the music reigns.
