APPEAR

There’s a wall, in my mind
And its too tall, for me to climb
So I'll sit, by the railroad track
And spend the time that I'll never get back

So I’ll stare
at this blank page
I'd write my thoughts but I don't know what to say

Sometimes I wish these
words would appear
the way, I want them to

For this road it's never gonna pave itself
These words ain't gonna put food on the shelf
I should stop wasting all this precious time
Cause the winter’s gonna put me outta mind

For this next year they say it's gonna change
But I know that it's gonna stay the same
If I can’t get these words to appear
the way, I want them to

Are you ready for the show
Are you ready to sell your soul
I don't have the time
Awaiting on the rhyme

And for this tree is losing all its leaves
And pretty soon I'm gonna pack these bags and leave
And I don't want no one to see me go
And I don't want my presence to be known

I'm a traveler taking on the world
I won’t prove nothing till I get out there and be heard
And I can’t get these words to appear
the way, I want them to

Yeah, If I can’t get thesewords to appear
the way, I want them to
