Jwei Lih: I know I suck... but please bear with me!

This song hit me in my sleep like a ton of bricks...

A SONG IN MY SLUMBER

As darkness envelops the sky,

I walk alone on the road home…

All the while I endlessly think

Of sending my views through this song…

A dry bitter breeze is blowing,

And the city is getting cold…

I wonder how it would feel like,

Having someone who’s there to hold…

All of the people come and go

Always bearing heavy burdens,

In desperate search for tomorrow,

No matter how far the distance…

Boundless passion, feelings like sand,

Malevolent words pierce my heart,

Falling through my delicate hands,

Ripping and tearing me apart…

I wonder where the birds fly to,

As they freely slice through the bend.

Will they ever find their way home?

And how will their battle scars mend?

I can’t return to the same place

I ever once was in the past.

Even if I give my dream up,

My heart never stops beating fast…

Someday I want to tower high,

Past the mountains and the white clouds…

No matter how vast the problem

And the eternal shadow shrouds…

I’ll just spread my hearts tiny wings,

And journey bravely once again,

I’ll stay courageous, true and strong,

No matter what evils happen…

I’ve searched for pieces of myself,

All the while counting endless nights,

These feelings in me are certain,

I’m almost confident they’re right…
