Winter's First
i've learned when the sky is a layer of grey
 that being inside isn't where i will stay.
 what would the country be if we didn't have snow
 it becomes much more stunning when things start to grow.
 though the bright sun doesn't always shine
 there are times when all the seasons combine.
 when you can feel the warmth radiate from your skin
 yet still detect the chill burried within.
 you try to find shelter, take cover and hide
 search for a new way to escape the emotions inside.
 is it physically possible to silence your mind
 forget about the answer you're trying to find?
 there comes a time in which your thoughts will roam
 find yourself questioning the meaning of home.
 is where we are born the place we should be 
 or are we all waiting for the chance to break free?
 i'm trying to build myself a fesh start
 a place far away to follow my heart.
 in this world of imitation i try to stay true
 one thing to depend on until days are through.
 there are fears, obstacles, challenges to face
 once they're all overcome we will find our place.
