Someday, I’ll throw it on a blank page
I’ll tell the story my way
Keep it safe in my mind
Those things, I hadn’t thought of that way
Until the moment escaped -
Retelling it was fine
What’s with the moment and not being there?
Some timekeeper stole it and it don’t seem fair
What is the right way?
You made it up, it’s just a sound that you know
And it’s hard to forget it
Waking up to the same sound that you know
What if I grew up in a village
Far away from everything I have ever seen?
Would the rushing world be nonexistent?
Could the small things stay small things?
Why does expectation stare right down at me?
Keep getting stuck on it and I can’t be free
What is the right way?
You made it up, it’s just a sound that you know
And it’s hard to forget it
Waking up to the same sound that you know
Someday, I’ll throw it on a blank page
My way
