Always Cloudy

Looking into distant eyes

Why is your face clouded with confusion?

You try to hide the frustration you feel


You need a light to find you in the darkness

Can I be that light?

You are like a bird stuck in a cage unable to fly

You want to run,

But something is holding you back

What can we do?


Like fog in the air

Your thoughts are unclear

There is a haze of misunderstanding

Let me be the sun to shine through the clouds
