I see glimpses of myself
Laughing, screaming, reaching for the stars
I see glimpses of myself
All worry abandoned to the skies
I see glimpses of myself
Child-like and full of love
Then the fog returns
Blurring my vision
All the mirror reflects
Is a heart full of splinters
I reach for that child, for that joyousness
I ache for that self, that dream of freedom
Slippery sand - I try to hold it
Rainbows - I try to catch them
Laughing, screaming, reaching for the stars
I see glimpses of myself
All worry abandoned to the skies
I see glimpses of myself
Child-like and full of love
Then the fog returns
Blurring my vision
All the mirror reflects
Is a heart full of splinters
I reach for that child, for that joyousness
I ache for that self, that dream of freedom
Slippery sand - I try to hold it
Rainbows - I try to catch them
