lost highway to nowhere?
Their dreams have been broken
and their faith has been lost.
A bottle seems the only answer
to drive the world away.
They immerse themselves deeply
to forget who they are
and start travelling down
that lonely lost highway.
How many good people
have you seen fall this way,
letting go of their dignity
to travel down with others
along that lonely lost highway.

The sun brought out its colouring book
as far as the eyes could see.All the colours of the rainbowstared out at me.It came as the sun roseand faded when it went away.While it stayed, it warmed the airspreading its beauty everywhere,putting smiles on people’s faces,making little birds sing,opening bouquets of flowerswho thought it must be spring.When the sun brought out its colouring…
