I sit down, to relax, to just think... I don't know
where is change?
A new way to see, another way to go
I say all right, all right for now...
And I surrender; for I do not wish to fight
I wish for gold to powder the night..
I wish for color to flower the day...
To paint the words I cannot say
I wish for peace... a silence of the mind
to paint the quiet I cannot find...
And I lay down...
Here in fields of gold... buttercups smile and say hello
Emerald blades flow beyond tender winds that blow
A quiet lake… no waves to compete for a chance
Wooded greenery... all wave in symphonic dance
A single flower... in fields that swallow your glance
Rolling hills… bronzed and browned in their earthly glow
A seasoned sunset... flaunting its colors in a pompous show
And I say all right, all right for now
A chance to paint the way; show me how
I wish to create the majesty I see
Everyday in full and plenty
And I wonder if this could ever be done
Alive in the life of the egotistical one
Here is change...
Beyond the existence of my day-to-day
Alive in the life...
How different it could all be...
to see through altered eyes so naturally
Alive in the life...
Painting a new me so beautifully...
