Metaphor

[refisher]

The sky sheds its tears on me
The only light is at the end of the street
Mesmerizing   The small, mounted light
It can be seen from so far in this night

Along the sidewalk, stumbling
Can't see where I am going
Just heading toward that point

Stepping lightly, pause a sec
Can't see my feet on the path
Just pushing toward that point

The clouds' thunder roars at me
My eyes move from the end to the lightning
Mesmerizing   The large, angry strike
It absorbs my focus as I falter

Along a front walk, wandering
Can see where my feet place themselves
Just entertaining the storm

Stepping firmly, ignore the faint glow
Can sense regret but it's too fun now
Just wrapping myself in this world

The blades on the lawn wrap around me
That faded glow has revealed their fake green
Not grass but weeds   Get away from me
Can see the door ahead   Offers chains to me
Run away, run away

Along the sidewalk, tightly walking
Can't see how on earth I'll get there
Just know I need to get to that point

Stepping hesitantly, the storm may throw me
Can see the end but not the means
Just know that: Because I can see that light
In this darkness means something

Along the sidewalk, tightly walking
Can't see but feel a change around me
Just know that the light shines brighter

Stepping hesitantly, the storm wants me
Can see light particles gather at my feet
Just know though there's distance, the Light is closer

Just know that: Because I can see that Light
In this darkness means something

Meaning, draw me close
Meaning, absorb me
Meaning, keep me close
Because I know I can't do it myself.
