The first song and the only sort of personal song that was supposed to sound like Simon and Garfunkel that has nothing to do with the Moptop family at all!

lyrics

Verse 1

A weed is growing up back in my mind
Remembering past mistakes and leaving them behind
Things aren't always how they seem
And it takes time and effort
To figure out what they mean

But before you go that far
you must find out what they are
when your inner thoughts are at large

Breathe in and breathe out
Be still or shout
cause there's always variations
and so many explanations
but you still dunno what it's about

Verse 2

It's funny how things always change
What used to be familiar has become strange
We always come back we can never get enough
And not even when we tell ourselves that time is up

The little stories turn to something big
and moves your body just as if
it didn't have the mind to compete with

But the hardest part is
the home isn't always where the heart is
cause the fact is
you don't need an art to practice
to know that you're an artist

Verse 3

Rapid fires burning to the ground
Lost imagination that never will be found
When contradictions become deep
You find yourself wading barefoot on your feet

And the water will get you
and never let you
go until your surface has met you

Things aren't always how they seem
and everything could be a dream
cause happiness could be sorrow
and what makes you laugh tomorrow
could be what today makes you scream
