I have wondered many times what it takes to get out of this place
Hove asked the heavens many times for my wish, to be far away
Solitude for a minute just for soul searching and my peace of mind
To be greater than I ever have imagined if only my wish I will find
Blurred visions of a life I dreamt about and the contradictions of it
Outweighing the possibilities of right and wrong that I ever admit
Giving in to those lost dreams floating in my memory like a ghost
Lost souls of a life I remembered I wanted, joined now by only hopes
Is it actually here that I sit and think, that I realize the bad in life
Asking still why do I hold onto something I know to it there is only lies
I sit and wonder on my childhood and the ghost of it looks back at me
The tears of the inner child with his world’s weight being too heavy
My eyes once closed to the real world I now open them with tears
One runs down my cheek to my heart and the warmth of it assures
The man in the mirror is not just a dream once so happy and wild
But the wishes come true of a once so innocent and beautiful
Inner Child
