I couldn’t sleep for thoughts of you
Morning, feelings, cold and dew
Everything was just so fine
Clueless, lost that was my crime
Nothing in my dark lit up
Thoughts of you kept coming but
the loneliness kept holding tight
This opponent was my lifelong fight
Seldom happiness would have a say
All the vivid colors turned to gray
Forsaken in my ice age day by day
A cul-de-sac, a dead end stop
I would rant and rave until I dropped
Nothing changed, it wasn’t meant to be
Even my dreams and wishes couldn’t set me free
Some force was negating, maliciously intent
a life of accomplishment and content
I bargained till my beard turned white
the other one just laughed at this my plight
You could have cashed your soul for fun
and lived a life of sin and some
he even mentioned that my soul was worth a bit
he’d talk to Karma even Hades could be skipped
Then he left for he had other things to do
I should call him if I'd feel I’m through
In between he came around
telling me I wasn’t sound
I should think about a deal
Rap it up and put a seal
What’s the point when nothing works
and your days are filled with hurt
Life’s too short to live in pain
All agree that is a shame
and there’s no one here to blame
But who was he who tempted so
What energy did make him grow
I made him up that much I know
therefore why can’t I let him go
Worry, fear, and disillusionment
helped in his establishment
Sunshine, love, and laughter
will destroy his term as master
To beat him at his game
and bring happiness again
my entire life I searched for you
questioning exhausted if you could be true
often clueless, lost, I lived through years of rue
and spent much time talking to the stars with tears
hoping that someone might open up their ears
My angels came a running, just before it was too late
They called the wind to blow a storm and change my fate
You greeted me and we knew before a word was spoken
that we had scars from many places we were broken
Even now I do recall the times alone
when my thoughts run away from home
and I dig in places dark and drown
forgetting all the joy you've brought
and everything I ever sought
There was no crime
and no disorder
Clueless, lost, I crossed the border
Deep I sank into some feelings
fleeing from my heart and being
till you came along
and stroked me with your song
Finally, my life is mine to shine
There never was a crime.
