The Ceiling

Come in
Sit down
This song is for someone
But I hope it isn't you

This song is for someone who feels under appreciated
Under paid frustrated and irritated
This song is for someone who's losing hope
And the rope that's holding the cartoon piano above their head is starting to fray
This song is for someone who with each passing day is growing more and more afraid
More lost, more dismayed
Misplaced and way laid
Extra terrestrial aliens on earth on an everlasting search to find somewhere to belong
If that someone is you
This is your song

I must be dreaming
Float up into the ceiling
Shake this feeling
Frozen in the hands of time again
Again

Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on

This world is cruel it'll remind you
Don't let it define you
Of course you should own the way you feel
But allow yourself to grow and heal
Bear in my that by design
Nothing is built to last
So no matter what this too shall pass
So imagine yourself amongst the grass
A dandelion not a thought in your head
Just silent
And with the breeze your problems release blown away into the distance
No resistance, gone, non existence, bliss
You deserve to be happy

I must be dreaming
Float up into the ceiling
Shake this feeling
Frozen in the hands of time
I must be dreaming
Float up into the ceiling
Shake this feeling
Frozen in the hands of time again
Again

Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on
Keep on keeping on

And all of these knock backs and setbacks at least build character
And if you can make the right decision when no-one's looking
That is character and I'm proud of you
Because you will recover from this
And as far away as that seems, one day this will all feel like last nights dream
Growing more and more faint as the sun warms the day
Until eventually it's completely gone away
You deserve to be happy
You deserve to be happy
