Seeds In The Wind (Lyrics)

There we were
At school last year
Every day together
So close we grew
With time I knew
These people I call friends

The summer blew by in a haze
Time rushed, though still I missed them
And now they are all scattered far away

Seeds in the wind
Winds of change blow by
Seeds in the wind
I hate to say goodbye
I hate to know that they're so far
that I can't see them
I hate to see our bonds of friendship
start to weaken
Blown in the wind
Seeds in the wind

The compass points
North, east, and west
are aiming at my brethren
I talk to them
but less than when
they lived so close to me

way off in cities I don't know
I'm starting to forget them
Can I even visualize a face?

Seeds in the wind
Winds of change blow through
Seeds in the wind
I'm losing those I knew
I'm losing faith that I can hold
onto these people
I'm giving in, that maybe
they'll just drift away
Blown in the wind
Seeds in the wind

The storn clouds brew
The sky's obscured
A voice breaks through
I think it's yours
It's fading fast
I try to call
But now the past
Is slipping from my hands
slipping like sand

blown in the wind
seeds in the wind

The wind

Seeds in the wind
Blown off to distant lands
Seeds in the wind
And who knows where they'll land
And though I sit each night
And there I feel alone
I know my friends will bloom
no matter where they're blown
By the wind
Blown in the wind
Seeds In the wind
Seeds in the wind

Hey... have to agree with whoever fizzlesticks is. XD It's really pretty, and even just when I'm reading it, it tugs a bit on my heartstrings.... Now I just need a tune to put it to. XD

The sad thing about seeds is that they all flew to the north or the west. not to the flat stupid east.

I'm trying. I'm super busy, and stressed right now, and sick (again, I know) but I'm trying. Is it really so hard for you to even try?

I don't remember faces, I don't have any pictures to put above my bed, just a skull looking down at me through an open eye...

Maybe it's just that I haven't graduated yet, or that I don't really have much of a social set (at all) but I totally think this is melodramatic. I mean, people drift apart. They leave. That's life.

Melodrama is self-indulgent. It's a pose of narcisscism. However, unlike Anon3, I think it's significantly less irritating as poses go than, say, that of the paragon of selflessness. After all, acknowledging how you feel regardless of how self-centered it is is honest, and selflessness is just a cry for attention. Also, maturity is boring.
