Where are you now?

Blue overcoat and a blue tub.

Ants are crawling up my arms.

The wind tickles my eyes

and the sun doesn’t let me sleep.

Where are you now?

Are you thinking of me?

Have you missed me at all?

My hair is slowly turning red,

My body is quickly wasting away

Yet my soul remains intact.

Where are you now?

Are you thinking of me?

People stare at me

As if I’m going to bark

No one really know who I am

I can go around unseen

And unaffected over here.

No one really knows who I am;

I’m starting to forget myself.

Skirts, dresses, high heels,

Make-up, plaid shorts…

None of this amuses me anymore.

Fake people saying fake words.

Light and dark become one.

Nothing makes sense anymore,

Nothing shines in the sun

And everything is gloomy.

Yet something is ticking in my heart.

Hope prevents my from falling.

Love lets me soar through the sky

And reality keeps me in check

So I won’t float away.

The trees whisper something in my ear.

A rumor about us, about you

Is it true? Can it be?

Where are you now?
