It's cold outside, like the tip of a dog's muzzle
It seems like a good day to stay in and cuddle
It also seems like the wind in the air
Invites the intrepid to run out somewhere
So whether you snuggle indoors or trek outside
Good luck to those at the sun's low winter tide

Some just begin to rise
Others begin to fall
People's sleeping changes with dusk
Heeding the night's call

The early bird tucks in for sleep
The night owl wires up for fun
As people continue their daily cycles
With the disappearance of the sun

When I see you
When I don't
I could tell you
but I won't
When I see you
I could cry
Still I'm laughing
Don't know why
When I see you
Do you see me?
God I miss you
Can it be?
When I see you
I'll confess
I can't see you
What a mess
When I see you
but I don't
Best forget you
but I won't

you should have told me it was going to be this hard
during prayer you should have been there
to listen and guide me
you were supposed to be there to hold my hand
when i had nobody else
i expected your warm embrace
all i wanted was a guiding hand
my prayers fell deep and you didn’t listen
i stopped visiting and talking
our communication was lost
i never found you

If we don’t make it, I know why
Its the way you talked about her on the day I fell in love with you
Your lips tired themselves of saying her name as I said yours
The way her face has crossed your mind as many times as you’ve crossed mine
But see, I’m wrong
You say you don’t love her and that she’s in the past
But if she was then why does the girl you love know oh so much about the one you loved two years ago
Why do I know her favorite spots and the places you’ve taken her to
Why do I know what she likes or hates 
How do I know who her friends are and who she’s been with
While I tried getting to know you, I learned so much about her
So when you say I’m crazy, its not that I imagine this, its that you’ve built a fairytale in my head, one I have no part in.

We all deserve to live free

Why do we want things free?

I thought it was supposed to be a free country?

We're selling our time

We're selling our effort

All for the paper...

That's supposedly how we get out necessities.

We buy our food

We pay for a place to live in this world,

So this is "the real world".

Why is the education we supposedly need,

To make the big money and land that good career,

Putting us in shackles of debt?

We're paying for this land

That is given to us by mother nature

For free

And we can teach each other and ourselves

To be free of judgement

To be free of oppression

To respect all of life equally

We can stand up for one another

We can stand up for the people in the world

We all deserve to live free
