Mood Ring

Spent my time tangled up
Two steps back, my eyes glued shut
Glass empty and over it
Closer to a cynic than an optimist

Tend to get carried away
This fantasy is better made
Now I'm talking to myself
Like I was somebody else

Then I saw you
Dancing in the distance
Bask in your existence
All of my colors changing
Then I saw you
Pulling on my heartstrings
Let me check my mood ring
All of my colors changing
Then I saw you

Walked around these busy streets
Cloud hanging right over me
Rain drops fall, drowning in these sheets
Waist deep in a river of my self defeat

Moonlight shines down on my shoes
My cheap jewelry changing hues
Now I'm talking to myself
But I hear somebody else

Then I saw you
Dancing in the distance
Bask in your existence
All of my colors changing
Then I saw you
Pulling on my heartstrings
Let me check my mood ring
All of my colors changing
Then I saw you
