Clouds

There’s a rain cloud over my head to remind me of you
The days in my past, clouded from reality and truth
A subtle building of habit and routine
Growing thick with the smoke, you’d know what I mean
If I took us back, I’d find nothing at all
Not a touch of the truth, a trust built only to fall
And I drank my own poison, the girl of misery
She’ll bring you down, only her will you see
But the tables were turned, I’ve gone straight to the ground
I don’t seek your protection, you’ve only spun me around
With your great findings of places to hide
What was my point, you were only in for the ride

Oh these clouds, they hide the sky
Not even the sun will shine, the brightest of stars
A blanket of grey, all the color will fade
And oh these clouds, they hide our sky
Not even I can shine, once the brightest of stars

Along came the downpour to wash you away
You’ve abandoned my memory, you were never here to stay
Tell me, what’s the point to betray?
When all you’ve wanted will simply decay
Those are such high places to store dreams
I hope you can reach them without tearing the seams
Of your own being, the liar you keep within
To keep yourself safe, before hate can begin
Don’t hide child, that’s the coward’s mark
You’ve got them fooled, your eyes are dark
Long days and young nights, none of it was real
I thought these clouds would break and I’d learn how to feel
But you’re only a blanket from truth
And from you, I ask for no proof
You’ve done enough to prove you’re not worth a thing
And I’ve learned of the clouds, the clouds that you bring

Oh these clouds, they hide my sky
Not even the sun will shine, the brightest of stars
You’re just a blanket of grey, all your color will fade
And oh you’re the clouds, you hide my sky
Not even I can shine, once the brightest of stars
