My Days - Leah Dou

I was sitting by my door,
A couple of things I can’t ignore:
Am I wise or am I just a fool?
Strangers passing by,
Say ‘hello’, eye to eye.
Do they think the same things as I do?
I wanna escape, leave this behind.
I’ll chase the world, I’ll till the sky.(?)

Oh take me to the time of my days.
I don’t feel the need to stay.
I dream a different kind of way.
Try to see the world through their eyes.
Please forgive me, I apologize.
I truly just don’t see the reasons why.

To see in white and black,
Face to face but back to back.
Feel the shadow everywhere I go.
I’m facing down the street,
Tracing back ten more feet. (?)
Is there one place only I would know?
I wanna escape, leave this behind.
I’ll chase the world, I’ll till the sky. (?)

Oh take me to the time of my days.
I don’t feel the need to stay.
I dream a different kind of way.
Try to see the world through their eyes.
Please forgive me, I apologize.
I truly just don’t see the reasons why.
