8:19 pm Towards the Sun
Climbing higher
up a neverending hill
we keep on climbing
even if some lack the will
left then a right
we slowly try to reach
the air is thinning
and its getting hard to breathe
Driving further towards the sun
we're heading to the light, one by one
all awaiting for eternity
when the chains are pushed away
and we can all be free
we're driving further towards the sun
so we can all be free
Swimming longer
through the seven seas
the edge of the earth
we're waiting to break
stroke then a stroke
it's an arm's length ahead
still we approach
but the water ceased to end
breath is short
and coming to an end
Driving further towards the sun
we're heading to the light, one by one
all awaiting for eternity
when the chains are pushed away
and we can all be free
we're driving further towards the sun
so we can all be free...
it's like we're only sleeping,
merely dreaming, semi-breathing,
walking, waiting, searching, reaching,
nearly fading,
hardly here, but barely there
are we escaping?
I wrote this song during a semi-positive time in my life. My life was going down the drain but for some reason, at this time I wasn't looking back at my life and my mistakes. I was looking forwards to the future, to what leaping over all these hurdles will come to: happiness. If I kept moving forwards in my life, eventually all life's messes will be washed away. It's really a song of inspiration... I wish I could sing it for all of you, but I hope my words are enough to tell you a story.

i hope you're right. i hope moving forward will help sift through the chaos. sometimes i find myself blocking the future, because i am afraid of what it brings. sometimes i feel so stuck in fear that i idle, unable to make my next move...to try to push past the hopelessness. i guess i don't know if the future brings better times, but i know it doesn't hurt to try.
