I can tell by the color of the skyYou and I so red divided into pieces of the sunI fall into the moment understanding whyI try to hard to hold it but I let it flylet it fly awayAnd only the future seems clear to me right nowA foreign object to be at peace with...On and onI can't believe the echos of the falling rainTime walks awayNo matter what we do we can't erase the walls around a poets dreamShiny broken thoughts that sit alone have lost their wayHand outs all around distort the charityWaterfalls suspend the air and birds fly in reverseNature misinterprets who she's meant to be and all in one dayA stolen misconception can't correct what I have seenTo you to me it's all a lie and so I interveneWithout the world's forgiveness I cannot be brought to lifeForever in the winter I see summer in the distance,Summer in the whispers of the light.
