In a World Like This - Melissa Ferrick

Trees that grow

against brick walls

Reach for freedom

Reach for sunlight

And stretch for certainty

In their lives

N’the slated sky

Grey with indecision

It wants to shine

It wants to cry

But it doesn’t know the difference

It doesn’t know the difference

It doesn’t know the difference

N’neither do I

'Cause in a world like this

Dreamers are born everyday

In a world like this

These dreamers get in my way

And the heat it shakes

It shakes out the chill

That the wind sends up its back

During the dry season

Everything is still with a fear

Of never coming out

Never following through

Never ever finishing what we wanted to do

'Cause in a world like this

Dreamers are born everyday

In a world like this

These dreamers get in my way

N’the slated sky

Grey with indecision

It wants to shine

N’it wants to cry

But it doesn’t know the difference

It doesn’t know the difference

Yea well

.

Neither do I
