\"Wake up and smell the rain before it sweeps you away, away from all of your dreams building up, away from your beautiful life. Hurry up and enjoy the great drops of shimmer you spread on the world.\" -Me

Hello, hello is that you?
Is this why i've been so lonley and blue.
I can not find the big red star
My days are cold and far too dark
Is there a way to be saved
A way onto that huge ark
To sail beyond my ocean of tears
Beyond all mind and matter and hurt
I want to see what lurks ahead
Then maybe, baby, you'll no longer be dead.
