Lifelike

All the light in the sky
All the sun in this world
Hasn't a shine on you
All that might be in my life
All the thoughts that I hide
Hang on you

I just cannot tell you what I'm feeling
It is a fourhundred foot drop
And I'm hanging by the skin of my teeth
Knowing you're not standing beneath

Piece by piecemeal
I crumble into dust
When you occlude my vision
In life you have to
Be a go-getter
But I cannot get you

I just cannot tell you what I'm feeling
It is a fourtundred foot drop
And I'm hanging by the skin of my teeth
Knowing you're not standing beneath

You are someonelse's treasure
And I laugh to see you smile
In the shadows hide my feelings
Unless our worlds collide

All the light in the sky
All the sun in this world
Hasn't a shine on you
It would pinnicle my day
If you would glance my way
But I'll sit ill-content and watch you.
