Stress and Pain
Thunder cracks through my head
Stress and exhaustion rain down on my eyes
Waking up tired isn't how I should spend my life
Lightning strikes my heart when he’s near
How can such joy be felt through such pain
Always in the back of my mind
my little memories I hold onto to feel human again
but pushed back by the life of a student
Deadlines and assignments add to the tension
So much to do but I just want to spend time with you
A hurricane in my mind swirling all my thoughts
so much to think about, don't know where to start
I think i’ll dream, maybe of you and hope for rest
Until i see you again, I’ll say a spot in my heart and my mind for you
The wind will never blow away your smile from my mind
Only important things are worth this pain
You’re my calm in a storm
your side is where i’d rather be
a few years from now it will be you and me
I can wait for you until the time is right
I don't need just a hand to hold
I need to hold a heart close to mine
You can understand, I’m the fire in your eyes
I’m the cool spring in your soul
Stress and Pain
can be as cleansing as rain
how can you know what the sun is like
without some thunder and dark skies
