Blue


Blue has the clues and tick-tocks are for clocks and fairy tales are all happily ever after The sky only falls when a chicken calls and the years only run faster Because the younger you get the more you forget about when you were old and gray But the older you get the more you regret the years you wasted away You try to restart, but you can’t find the heart to get back to the beginning because you are at the end And you sent Blue away but she had all the clues The clock just ticks faster Try as you might, you can’t see the light The darkness draws you in and as you close your eyes Blue gives you the clues to restart your life
