Another Day

I'm sitting at the window thinking
As rain falls down the hard, hot earth,
The Sun is hidden in the clouds,
But there's still daylight outside.
And birds are looking for a place to hide
From the cold,hard rain outside.

And I'm sitting in my room, alone, sipping from a cup of tea.
As hot steam rises from my tea,
My mind flies back in time and fills up with memories
And I remember what you said to me.
I remember that you promised me
That you'll always be there for me,
And that I'll never be alone,
'Cause you'll always be there, beside me.

But take a look at me now, my dear...
I'm afraid of my own shadow,
I feel lonely and confused,
Used and abused.
I sit alone in my room for hours,
Trying to figure out why I can't be like them,
And why do I care so much about what people say about me.

I wish I could just feel free to say what's on my mind,
To tell them that I don't care,That I'm strong, that I belong.
But I'm out of words,
And I've been like this for too long,
So I forgot how it is to be strong.

So, now I need you, my friend
To tell me that I'm not alone,
To remind me that I'm not like this,
To make me believe in myself.

I just need someone to talk to,
Someone to share thoughts with,
Someone I could spend a lot of time with.
Someone that won't get bored of me,
Someone that could teach me things, give advice and always be nice.

As my mind comes back to present,
I look outside my window again.
It's almost dark outside and the rain has stopped.
The trees outside my window are now full of sleepy birds
That clean their feathers and look for a place to sleep on the heavy wet branches of the old trees.

The sky suddenly turned a shade of orange
As the clouds reveal a beautiful, perfectly round Sun
That is soon going to disappear again and let the Moon take it's place.
There goes another day...
