How High I Could Fly

Carried off to green fields with the breezeNever waking from these dreamsNever forgetting how high I once could flyNow the breeze passes over broken wingsCorruption came to soonBut which is which and who is whoSelf esteem what the hell does that meanWhat good for me will I ever doI once believed it would be okayI thought I could do without what I so needSacrificing good for painKnowing a broken heart will bleedPain now creeping beneath my skinEmptiness spinning circles in my soulConsumed by my own fearsDespair is the only thing I can't let goAll that is now, all that will ever be, will be lostLike the sweet aroma of innocence you once smeltYou can almost taste it but you can only do withoutThe happiness so pure you've forgotten how it feltAnd maybe for one endless momentYou could say you don't know how hopelessness feelsBut there is always that threat that follows close behindDarkness always at your healsTher are those one hit wondersWho have felt what they've only dreamedKnowing just that once they felt that they belongedAll that is gone like the brightness of my childhood and how it gleamedNow this stains left upon my soul this is all that's left of meThe thought of never being somebody makes me afraidThat somebody, I was forced to believe inNow all my freedom with that fears left betrayedThese words inscribed like a scripture on my soulThis nothingness I've tried to hard to mendLife was more than I thought it was cracked out to beBut my losses leave me stronger in the endLiving life on life's simple termsI still hold on to the desperationAssuring myself that some sense will come from this allSailing off over green fields flying in the breezeWill I ever reach my destinationMay 26th 2000, Hey I like this one allot, if ya can get through it that is. For all of those I told to elaborate more on their work. This may be an example of over expression. Either way it's very personal to me.
