Fairy tales and wishing wells Line the halls I build myself Painting murals upon the walls Telling stories of a life Some unfaded, clear in sight And yet some I can't recall But I still remember When I first surrendered To feel so light Like nothing's wrong And nothing's right Is sweet acceptance And so I give myself some time Time to think and time to rhyme The scattered lines I write But there the danger lies, you see 'Cause we all know that it's so easy To weave a veil before my eyes When I have lived enough to find That I feel the most alive When I cut the ties And watch the curtain fall In sweet acceptance And I won't forget you Even if I live a thousand years 'Cause in the time it took me to fall I gave it all In sweet acceptance
