I stand in a tree as the freezing cold wind blows through me
Looking down at the ground
The long grass sways in the breeze
The sent of dove lingers on the leaves
As thefeeling of freedom washes over me
--------------------------------------------------------------
I feel save, absent from the evils in this world
I hug the branch like a lover holds it's other
The moon lights up my face in the dead of the night
While I dream of a world
A world with no need to fight
No need to kill
---------------------------------------------------------------
I slowly discover myself, as my heart leads to another
A feeling of hope, helps me learn to cope
In a world full of anger
Full of hate
And full of pain
--------------------------------------------------------------
MaybeI come across as a crazy girl with mixed up ideas of the world
But I don't have a care for the people that judge me
I feel sorry for them
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I look in the mirror and I see me for whoI am
I wonder if the others could tell me
Just what do they see in me
AmI just a girl about to jump from the tree
I am sure that is what they really want to see.
