win[G]loss

photo beams bright shine up the dusk
like a crown in the sky
the dust in the air isnt what really makes us cry
its purple pink orange and gold fighting over control of the clouds and the view
a friendly scuffle that paints a picture thats every evening, new
they light a fire on the horizon
that spreads and rises until someone realizes whats going on
but no true soul would dare put this out
bona-fide beauty like this is what makes a gap in our mouth
all we wanna do is shout
LOOK!
one word that took my eyes and spun them around
until this right combination locked them on
and found how to fly into what is soon to be night
what better time to fly
if you keep going hotter into the flames all together
youll find a warmth that lasts forever - a sun that never sets
a sky that lets you come - welcomes you in
takes its heat and sets it within
so that when the sun sets youve got a vision of love inside of you
that you cant forget
but for now ive yet to find both my wings or either for that matter
but i might jump off anyway
you might find me insane - crazy - a loony mad hatter
but you just dont get it do you - no one typically does
see that id rather believe i can lift up into the air
then spend my candle-smoke-life with all the typical care - and lack of dare
ill go naked with only the clouds to wear and wind for my hair
and ill stay up there until the sky falls down and tears me down with it
if she'd even think to try it
she knows i wouldn't dream of it
or imagine leaving a state where my soul sets freeing
where my eyes always seeing something real
something to feel with my toes in the sun - running on its surface for fun
I AM FREE - COME WITH ME
see!
feel!
breathe!
need!
be a girl!
bleed the world out!
take off your clothes and shout!
let the show commence!
it doesnt always have to make sense!
be let go!
be yourself again - open your body back up to what it used to be
back when you used to smile
back when your heart was that of a child
back when - back then
lets go back again
you cant just wish it hard and close your eyes
or click your red shoes and hope you find
yourself back "home" in kansas alone
there is your home!
you belong on the road - on the streets of the sky
where the lanes show you where to go but theyre hardly there
because theres such free air all the time!
look!
there!
go!
you dont need me!
you dont need anything!
just believe and jump and take yourself up
the sun is fading - laying down for the evening
you dont have to much more time
if youre keeping yourself land-locked docked and grounded
cock your engine and shoot up like a star
you finally found it
dont be shocked
when you go and
get your soul
rocked
