A song I wrote for Creative Writing. I can't come up with a title.
Lost in an imaginary world
Floating round your head
You try to lock those voices out
But you keep hearing what they said
You say it doesn't bother you
You'll stand the test of time
But those words, they will come back again
Somewhere down the line

CHORUS:
Icy hands are shaken
Choking out the night
Not strong enough
Not fast enough
To make it to the light
Swirling crystal visions
Minds change but ever clear
Disappear like tears
and wash away
These horrid, painful fears

You'll always be inadequate
No matter what you do
Good at everything
Except one thing
That makes someone love you
Blue and green
Only seventeen
But they can't see eye to eye
Their minds are far too selfish
To get answers for their cries

(CHORUS)

I search for that bounty ship
The one waiting in the night
So I can slip beneath its sails
And set its course for right
The single tracks divide
This east and that west line
The highway is so lonesome
Three bells toll,
Calling out through time

(CHORUS)

Death is not the answer
Won't revert to sin
Can't convert their hopeless ways
Lost and dying within
I shall rise above the sound
And I shall not be moved
Blanketed by narrow, yellow lines
Fixated within narrow, rotting minds
