Flood of Tears - Diary of Dreams

Mother see, that all my life

I planted flowers to survive

And as they faded I stopped to speak

I painted flowers

And nobody knows why…

No awakening, no lullaby

I only felt the need to try

To have the guts or the stupidity

To grab for stars, that I can’t reach at all

Father see, that I have tried

To find that angel deep inside

That you once promised I would meet

And once again I ended in defeat

Even here I could feel your eyes

Heard your whispers and felt your lies

Brother said «Come back to life»

I asked some friends

And nobody knew why …

Nobody had ever seen

My flood of tears

I can’t believe you found me here

It took some time to find these words

I wrote them down in hope that they might help

Watch me walk barefoot on glass

Insecure as only a newborn child can be

Others came to laugh at me

They pointed fingers as I could see

Believe me saying it’s not the skin

It’s the stranger living deep inside

Mother see, that all my life

I painted flowers to survive

And as they faded I stopped to paint

I fell asleep

And nobody knows why…

Father see, that I have tried

To build a world with only me inside

Millions of flowers surround my bed

Now I still grab for stars and I can reach them all
