They call the lights blinding
Is that such a bad thing
Or is it a ploy to keep me from watching
So all i see are the darkness within

I watch the lights
Not to be blinded from the pain
But to see a world with no pain, fear or doubts
And have some moments with no rain

Sometimes i wonder
Are the lights blinding
For keeping me from reality
Or the delusions that a reality that can be changed

    Great read!  Let me buy you a coffee.
