I wanna go

When hopelessness sets in

I wanna go
Where the sun shines
Where there are no lines
Dividing me
From everything divine

I wanna go
Where the skies aren’t gray
Where I get to do things my way
Where I’ll never feel betrayed

I wanna go
Where everything is joy
And my heart is not a toy
This madness is a burden
And a ploy

But all I ever know
Is the places that I go
Never live up to these ideals
Deep inside

But the longer that I think
The smaller I do shrink
Until everything is drowned out
With white noise

And if I close my eyes
It’s like paradise realized
And I silently resolve
To never change.
