where is my mind



i think i found the cross in my piano

and i think i might have seen it outside

i can see the cross in the trees and in the skies

i saw it on your face and in your eyes

and i saw it in the tears of the people

and i'll never know their names

but i saw it clearly in the wind

it's a shame you never came

because i heard the cross in the song
and you met me where i was--outside of time

outside of right,

outside of wrong,

i think i belong

here

i know i do

i don't understand

anything about you

but i'm okay with mystery

i don't want to know it all

a child-like mind would be just fine

i hear the voices call

oh, the beauty i see in you

is like nothing i've ever found

please don't leave me alone here

i like having you around

i can't face the sunset alone

because all the sunsets go

the sky is way up high

but sun comes down so low

your love for me is perfect

your love for me is strange

oh, you ever-lasting sunset

but i know you never change

and thank you

for that

i think that you are gold

and music is gold too

i guess you've already shown

me what to do

and though the sunset fades

your love burns eternal in my sky

you're made up of so many shades

i am a stranger, and so i cry

the earth is so beautiful right now. today the sun was shining gloriously and my sister was home and everything outside was green and gold and perfect. but she's gone now.

and so i only threw up my lunch today.

my freshman year's almost up. i am ACHING for summer, but i don't want to be a sophomore. and summer flies by so fast, and i usually end up wasting most of it. and school comes too soon, stealing all my happiness. and then we all get back into the cycle of our so-called lives.

i have realized that a person really can't live unless they have something to die for. what would i die for?
