Seven

Sittin' in the dark, crumbled on the floor,
Staring at nothing till it leaps out at me,
Waitin' on the sun; it's only 4 a.m.
Daylight will break out the strain in me.

7 shades of wrong,
She is,
7 shades of wrong,
You just don't see.

Time sneaks by me, without a sound,
Shadows strike out , lost;
Waiting on a change, aching to be re-found.

There was a time,
When I was that star in your sky,
That led you to the horizon,
True and high.
Shot down, left to fall...
Left to realize,

I am
7 shades of wrong,
She was.
7 shades of wrong,
Now just me.

Can't fit in a mold, that wasn't made for me,
Can't make you see what you are too hardheaded to believe-
But I will-

7 shades of wrong,
You and me.
7 shades of wrong,
Just you and me.
