All of a sudden im feeling a lot like Dorothy
im not in kansas anymore
a storm brought me here, out of the blue
And now everythings different
Unfortunately my yellow brick road doesn’t appear to lead anywhere,
And my witches, figurative and literal, aren’t dead,
I know my Glenda isn’t far away, but i can’t seem to find her
The colors are so vivid, sometimes they blind me,
Inside I long for my old black and white
You amnesia cuts like knives
And my heart is bursting at the seams
I might just need a new one
And some new courage and brains wouldn’t hurt either
I’d cry, but my tears are all used up
Jabs from every angle,
but i’ve gotten used to the scrapes
they’re only revealing a deeper piece of me
I just put on a bandaid covered in smiles,
and no one can ever tell
I have my ruby slippers
but right now all they’re doing is making my feet sore
All that glitters isn’t gold
So many wizards have proved disapointments
Some even dissinigrating in my hands
Now they’re dust on the wind
No one will ever stand firm on them
Theres one wizard that is a rock
And that is what saves me daily
Somewhere over the rainbow
Now its just a dream
But someday i hope it will solidify
And everything will come rushing back to me
