Pajamas

Broken bones and music tones
Soaring past the ears That fail to hear
That speak of love and hope and dreams
Found in others, toys and ice cream
So much joy a little cup yet up up up 
Only to drop and shatter a knee
While getting uncertain looks from she 

No one likes a bear in rage
But what they can't see is the cage
Around his mind that he truly doesn't understand
Fighting everyday to break free yet
There's not even a light in the tunnel to see

Who'd want to be around an angry bear?
Certainly you couldn't scratch his hairy hair
The moon doesn't mind
But she's only being kind
She wants nothing to do with it

I long to have my own kids, job, and pay
But I couldn't bear to see another today
Sunday, saturday, wednesday, May,
I can't imagine one more day

I've gotten to know the sun and I've dated the moon,
Yet it's surely not too soon
To say I will never love
Anything on earth or up above
The bridge calls my name
But maybe it's just for fame

I once went to that bridge though I knew better
I made it out alive and thought I was better 
Now thinking of it all the time
I don't think it's something of the past
No matter how far it always will last
As an  image graven into my mind
Can I ever find
Hope and dreams or either or 

The bear in rage trudges on
Soon there will be no night light on
Why not visit the bridge next today
It surely seems to take the pain away

Red iron

Not a galaxy up above nor an earthworm below
Can see into the heart of my soul 

Though the star give light to all I delight,
all I see is darkness

I think that I was born blind
Or maybe just my mind
Has always told me to run
Away from the setting sun

All things beautiful I long to touch
To grab, to hold, to clutch. 
Closely

Yet that bridge where the second life begins
Where death always gets his win
Looks all the more appealing
Death is coming, hands stealing.

Red cast iron and cables stretched
- across the world but not far fetched-
It Makes life painful for many
While painkillers for one role in plenty

Was that just a dream I had 
Or is everyday this bad?
An illusion,
Mocking my vision I look to the sky
But it is a lie


And the bridge keeps creaking in the wind

It'll happen again before I know it

Not a tick on the clock
Not a diggory dock
There's 7 yellow cars
But none will start

Maybe a free haircut
Or a pass by look
Can draw a smile
Make time pass a while

Nah not this time
Not in this rhyme
No night light today
The night Suns on vacation

There's some lightning bugs
And tomorrow's hugs
From the sun I dream
But it only seems

One of these days
The clock will again tick four
And closed will be that door
Will I have given myself
Or cries to sleep
