What Could Be
[1st v:]
As a stranger
Standing on top of the mountain
Looking all around
Never wanting....
Never expecting
Always knowing
There is always
That danger
What surrounds you
Is not always
As it seems....
Things may come
And .... go
Never lose faith in
What is....
Just what is
True
Can you see
Do you want to believe
What could
What would
Be
What could
Be
[1st ch:]
We all want to believe
In what we see
What
We feel
Never stopping long enough
To realize
To face
In what could
Be
Losing truth in lies
Fooling others
Fooling....mainly ourself
To avoid
What dances
In our eyes
Holding on
Letting go
Standing in line
Pretending
But believing
All is fine
The fire's burning
Avoid the truth
Better to live the lie
Not seeing
Not knowing
Just never
Never learning
In what would
Be
Could of.... should of
Could of.... should of
Never being
Avoid seeing
In what could
Be
In what should
Be
[2nd v:]
Its moving along
Going by
In one two three
Played like a song
Leaving you to question
It is all....
Alright
Is it all
Of everything
Is it
Is it all
It could be
Lie.... lie
Liar.... liar
The flames are rising
Turning in to
A raging fire
You want in
You want out
You want so much
To believe in....
In what is
What should be
The frame is shattered
The glass is breaking
Colors in the ....
The picture are fading
Turning to simple
Black and white
Ignore all that really
Really
Does matter
Give it up
Give it out
Hold on
To the empty cup
Talk too much
Say too little
Just so out of touch
Time to pretend
Its all good
Good to....
To the bitter end
[2nd ch:]
We all want to believe
In what we see
What
We feel
Never stopping long enough
To realize
To face
In what could
Be
What would
Be
Losing truth in lies
Fooling others
Fooling.... mainly ourself
To avoid
What dances
In our eyes
Holding on
Letting go
Standing straight in line
Pretending
But believing
All is fine
The fire's burning
Avoid the truth
Better to live the lie
Not seeing
Not knowing
Just never
Never learning
In what could
Be
In what would
Be
Could of.... should of
Could of.... should of
Never being
Avoid seeing
In what could
Be
In what should
Be

Inspired By ~ By so many details that surround life, and what so many ignore but live by....what so many hold on to with no reassuring reason....leaving the main question that forever lives on unanswered which is, why default what should remain positive instead of locking it away as though it does not exist when in fact it is kept alive just by thought alone
