Standing Still

When your dreams seem to belong to someone quite richer
And their greatness seems further than before
Not enough energy to get any closer
Too many tears held back
Yet sleep is unbearable
Brings back all the memories
The world turns,
But you stand still

When your friends speak to someone who is not there
And their laughter is nothing but background noise
Not enough storage for their words
Too many thoughts of your own
Yet silence is deafening
Brings back all the reasons why
The world turns,
But you stand still

When time seems to fail you
And it's painful to be the one trying
Not enough strenght to give up
Too many hours slip away
Yet letting go is unthinkable
Brings back all there could be
The world turns,
But you stand still

When your light seems to have been a dream
And hurt is heavier then what you can feel
Not enough hope to remember yesterday
Too many years ago, it seems
Yet this thought feels so wrong
Brings nothing closer to you
The world turns,
But you stand still

When you wait, without expecting
And you wonder if you could skip a month
Not enough will to guide you through
Too many things, but not what you yearn for
Yet giving up, it breaks your heart
Brings  back the old tears
The world turns,
But you stand still

When you wonder if you are missed
And find some comfort in your silent ways
Not enough ways to be sure
Too many walls that blind you
Yet nothing matters anymore
Brings you an inch closer to some sort of change.

When you miss the ways the light used to breathe you in
And kiss your heart like a tender breeze made of forever
Not a thing would ever dare to bring you down
Too many dreams to hold onto
Yet nothing seems quite right today
Brings you down...brings you back down...

So you breathe in and think this is when god was supposed to send you some kind of angel

No,
Not today
Heaven's on strike
