Written 685 days ago

Found this on my phone this morning going through my Notes app. it was written 685 days ago, not sure if in a sleep induced state or drunk because I can't remember it that well.

I have written it as it was, I may make some refinements soon and maybe put it in a song....not sure.

-------------------------------------------------

Back to where I was born

Where the sun stays in the sky

And everyone has a lawn

They used to be brown but are green again

Back in summer just in time

So much has changed since I was home

not just there but in me as well

I want them all to say he's changed

because I don't think I liked myself before I left

New beginnings, time to start again

White to the ending red, head falls, 

down on a familiar bed taken from me

by dreams of a life on the other side of the world

They may steal my bed again. Who knows?

I learnt life is not about how much you have 

but how much you grow

And how you treat the people you don't know

I started as a mustard seed and now look at me

I learnt to hold my head high and even be a man at times

Some forget that to be a man is not to be one all of the time

All the promises I made I will keep them once I am there

Please give me the strength.

So I just looked it up and it was written on the day I came back from my 4 month overseas excursion in late 2010. Which makes sense from the subject matter and in jet lag mode and not much flight sleep mode I would probably forget writing it.
