Maybe I could change it
Or pretend I'm not me
Naturally, forget
Cast my gaze to the sea
Or perhaps to the sky
Everyone asks why
Until I concede
Rambling on about it still
Battering and bruising my will
And my heart may bleed
Till I wake one bland day
Like one from a cocoon
And life will start to weigh
Calloused and lonely moon
Had to please everyone
And let go of the sun
Maybe I could change
And chase after what I desire
Dreaming always of that fire
Escape pressures range
Pulled back to the morning
Or to a flaming dream
Until they give warning
Rush away from each beam
Told what to be and do
Oh, if I could be you
I'd choose to be a morning dreamer - it's true
Acrostic: Mon coeur bat la chamade pour toi. French for "My heart beats for you". I think I got it from a Bronte novel, possibly Jane Eyre
