The tension I hold The feeling of getting old Sandbags for shoes to stay grounded I saw your face in a dream And I know it looked different But not what it means Loneliness can find me laying next to you And I'm growing but my pillow begs me not to So I'll cry 'til my bedding is a mess of blue Blue A child enjoys The sunshine The sunshine The sunshine The sunshine The sunshine She dances around her feet Fire ants have made their home Toes turn to mud Sandbags are heavy But water seeps in and I'm drowning Drop to the bottom Am I sunken or grounded? I close my eyes Imagine my own disguise Decades have passed and I've lived with regrets I'll see my face in a dream and I'll know I look different And love what it means Loneliness can find me laying next to you And I'm growing but my pillow begs me not to So I'll cry 'til my bedding is a mess of blue Blue
