There was a time I seemed so proud
Never paid attention to that dark thundercloud
Then one day it began to pour
Never let up and never worked out
So I went to my ma and said look at me now
Where have we been and who are my true friends
Seems like nobody cares and secrets are concealed
Life goes on for those who dare

Can’t you see I’m falling apart day by day
Scrounging around for something to eat and my body won’t sleep
There’s much at stake with fire in the sky and in this lonely guy

I’m getting cold won’t you be my blanket
I’m so alone that sometimes I just forget

Can’t you see I’m falling apart day by day
Scrounging around for something to eat and my body won’t sleep
There’s much at stake with fire in the sky and in this lonely guy

There was a time I seemed so proud
Never paid attention to that dark thundercloud

This was written after I finished writing my concept album. At this point, I almost gave up regarding on recording the project because I would listen to everyone around me that didn’t and wouldn’t try to understand you can rise above hope. I will never listen to people that think inside a box. I almost took my life when I thought friends and family knew best. I’m not mad at them because they don’t know sh*t and I’m still living.
