Water Park 04:14

A trip to the waterpark is something new Feeling naked without your shirt, ashames you Children scream so loud you want what they've got The freedom in yelling is something you forgot Down a waterslide you are in fright Whats up ahead is all out of sight Twist and turns they all make you shout hold on now, it'll spit you out You plunge in water now you are relieved You yell out a laugh and smile for others to eat You've made it down now, down the trecherous ride It was nothing you say, with your grown up pride Leaving the park you're feeling so renewed Carrying on your back the yelling truth Your sunburned skin glows brighter than the moon Pitch black eyes, they howl at you But a couple days at home, your colors fade to lift and project your voice, you're now afraid What other grown ups think, overtake your thoughts It's time to leave to eat from other parks You're hungry now you are for another thrill Addicted to change so you swallow a new pill In the end remember friend, you weren't forced to move Hope in those tinglings you've chased you've found truth Hope in those tinglings you've chased you've found truth Hope in those tinglings you chased, you find that good old truth

All these links I am clicking Trying to be reborn Logged into the world wide web To buy the clothes behind it's doors All these links I am clicking Has got me so bored Age, sex, location please I opened up, the lying door I told her I was older I had a high paying job I acted so much bolder She didn't know right from wrong I erased all my features I Curated my interests I did not send her a picture Imagination is best All these links I am clicking Late into the night My pupils have adjusted now Don't know my left from my right All these links I am clicking I scavenged for artifacts Some feeling to be grounded in A burning image that will last I lost my house in a tsunami I'm a beggar that's faced down I'm a boxer that's competing I got knocked out in the first round I'm a reptile morphing Putting on my camouflage All these bullets they keep flying at me I kiss this cross, and pray to God I kiss this cross, and pray to God I was not scared, I was not scared, I was not scared I was not there, I was not there, I was not there I'm not here, I'm not here, no I'm not here to be found Because I live in ideas now How can I care, How can I care, How can I care I just stare, I just stare, I just stare I'm not there I'm not there, but I'm not here to be found Because I live in ideas now I live in ideas now I live in ideas now

One thing I've learned There's always two sides to truths There's both good and an evil It was true for my soul too So I looked into a mirror Found out that I was blind So I opened my ears heard whisperings that were not kind Fears a wretched thing Its always chasing after me Makes changes in my face Even my sense of being The past it always creeps Feels like you're never someone new All your mistakes Composes you... into you Now I don't have that much To offer it's clear to see I can't even play the game I always hide, but rarely go seek I thought about the fire That burned but never scarred And how I never felt the cold Even when I chose to depart It's the warmth of her thoughts That saw me through the night She once said, You're welcomed home When you've grown tired to go out and fight Does the offer still stand tonight Loves a funny thing It's always chasing after me Makes changes in my face Even my state of being The past it may creep But you're making me new All my mistakes They were nailed to you Her name was Grace She made me new She took away the mistakes The guilt and shame Oh they flew Then I met Peace, she's like the Ocean She swayed with me That's when I weeped Cause I was feeling so cleaned Who knew Its what I needed, again Its what I need, again
