To Be

Oh, my head is a wandering cloud
drifting, drifting, I see
Oh, my heart is a bottle at sea
floating, floating I feel
Oh, my soul is a little lost child
waiting, woken, I fear
Oh, my body is a tired machine
breaking, broken is me

My light shines for no one
My moon blinds for me
Drifting, Floating, Breaking, Woken
Waiting, broken to be
Oh, my life is a suspect at large
hiding, hiding from me
Oh, my hands are tools of the trade
working, working to be
Oh, my thoughts are a part in a play
acting, open for she

Oh, my place is a trip in a dream
wishing, wanted to free
My voice sings for no one
But my song is for me
Hiding, Working, Acting wanted
Wishing, open to be
