I Can Barely See

Blueprints were alway black and white.
They lied in name just like I've lied.
I mapped my road along the stars.
But I've forgotten they're not just ours.
The view is known by all the world,
not just by the eyes of some silly young girl.
The world all faded and my eyes turned down.
Now I'm downcast and downtrodden
and falling down.
I wish I was a king and could change my whole view.
But I'm just a child. And I am not you.
One voice leads along and the other says go.
I wish I could jump but that's foolish, I know.
I'm tired. It's tiring just wandering alone.
The house freezes over. It's no longer a home.
I didn't make it. They designed it in rage.
Write me back a new story and please, turn the page.
Get me lost in a new light away from this place.
Hear the fear in my voice, but don't look at my face.
All my courage is scattered and comes back rarely.
But there's light somewhere near. I can see it
just barely.
So if I run to you will you hold me real tight?
Cause I think that's what I need now
to get back to alright.
