Geography Of Me


I am the cave you always see.
I am the cave you leave be.
When you look at me
you notice danger all around me.
An that's all you ever will see
 
Don't get me wrong; I'm not trying to be mean.
I just want you to see how much looks deceive.
If you took a chance and come inside my walls you wouldn't believe
what you would find if you look past my cold stone exterior.
'Cause behind my stone exterior
you will find my beauty has yet to disappear.
 
You see danger, dark, ugliness of my outside walls
but if you adventure within you would see.
Caverns of hidden diamonds that haven't seen the light in eternity.
Hidden deeper are rivers of deep shinning blue.
All the things you thought you knew.
Are all just a lie, you would know if you came inside.
 
I look so cold, dark, dangerous, and unforgiving
but deep inside there's so much living.
