Spero Melior

Nobody knows things put aside to board that final plane 
I set myself aside
This place I will call home, it's time to grow new roots
Fresh start a new found day, to push it all away

Day to day I learned another way 
Eluded - careless - drift along
Desert sands erode my temple 
Sun will dry my roots away 

The tears I shed, the lies I dealt, they should've shown me
Just lying to myself
With every passing sigh - a small part that dies
This very desert sand, I can't call my own, 
But now this desert sand - now it's home to me but red sand lines my tides

Eluded - careless - drift along
Desert sands erode my temple 
Sun will dry my roots away 

Dream away 
Eyes full of hate
Lies I dealt
Redeem myself
Betrayal
You retreat 
A message 
Revealed late
To mend

Leaves change my season
Leaves set my time
Leaves crawl up my walls

Pain does fade
Can finally breath 
Frowns make way
For lighter days 
A change
Roots follow my glide
Rearrange
See me eye to eye
For change

Leaves change my season
Leaves set my time
Leaves crawl up my walls
