you wonder if your life will ever change
or if you’re doomed to always be the same
the world swirls in chaos
your world swirls in chaos
but you attack your problems
just like always
by not
you’re so numb
you’re not even sure if you can make that judgment call on yourself
nothing touches you
even if it did you wouldn’t notice
or care
but then the weather changes
the season turns
there’s a chill in the air
that somehow shocks you into feeling
the gray skies and cold days
make you feel more alive than you have in ages
and maybe by knowing that the weather can change
you think you can too
so you try a little harder today
to do something you’d never do
to be someone you’ve only hoped to be
to pretend
in hopes that the charade becomes reality
