Caterpillar

I'm falling out With everything around me now Losing what I used to be And I'm over it They have been to the moon I'm just a caterpillar dead in my cocoon Swept by my mind's typhoon And I'm all at sea I wish it could be different Wish there was no dampness here Oh we shouldn't have listened To the angst and the fear I had it all Rivers of gold and forest so tall But I ran my canoe down a waterfall Started a wildfire I wish it could be different Wish there was no dampness here Oh we shouldn't have listened To the angst and the fear I wish it could be different Wish there was no dampness here Oh I shouldn't have listened To the angst and the fear Here I sit in silence as it's rising at me And I'm afraid that I'm not taking my chances How do I know it's light in the horizon that I see? I've seen questions, but never answers Darkness to me is only water to the sea I've only ever heard of drought I used to be the one with the grandest of dreams But how can hope keep believing through the war?
