Castle in the Clouds
I'm tired, I haven't slept a wink in three days
And I know that I'm from some place that is quite far away
But still, is that the way to treat someone like me?
Cause you just seem to do what you please
They say once it grows dark here it never turns back
But you point and you grin and you laugh and then you ask
Is it you? I swear that you don't belong
And I know soon you'll be long dead and gone
Walk through this maze
You will not
Sometimes I just feel like drifting away in my head
I'm speaking these words but no one has heard what I've said
In time I know you'll see my point of view
And then we'll bend the facts to match what is true
Wet my feet in the creek as it drifts slow up the hill
Time has been lost here but forever has been as well
So dream of houses up among the stars
But we know none of them will ever be one of ours
I don't like the last line there, but I'll fix it eventually. I wrote this with somebody else in mind, but it feels more like a conversation with myself now. Strange feeling.
