the Change I Wish to See

...and whatever else it takes to find my pants

i believe
in everything that's make-believe
even if my fantasy's Neverland on Earth
you say, "dream
but dream within the boundaries
when you add your color to the world"

and i don't know
what to make of it
'cause you're so perfect
the fault must be my own

but this ghost
would haunt me 'til eternity
if i backed down now


misplaced
misdirected
so much of this life
just ain't what i expected;
i don't need a miracle
i lost my faith some years ago
but i'll proudly wear my heart upon my sleeve
even if it breaks me



(and something i didn't write, obviously)
