The Bottom Line I LOVE GREECE!

This is the one piece I wrote in the 2 weeks I was in Greece. I was mad I only wrote one piece... but I really can't complain with this one.

Changed

It's funny when things around you speak
There's a voice that surrounds from the things I see
And the words that are said ring for eternity
'Cause I'm in a foreign place not so foreign to me

There's nothing like home, I've once been told
But a change in scenery keeps it from getting old
From becoming a blur
Passing in front of your eyes
Because a house, not a home
Can be you place of demise
And even though your lungs may still breathe
There's something quite different about the air you set free
Colors turn grey, sharps become dull
Throughout night and day, sounds, just a lull
Though you're still alive, something's different inside
A part of you has died; you need rebirth through your eyes

So step outside, and rebirth your life
Only laughter and joy, not pain and strife

Conversations I've had with every tree
Every glance I took towards the open sea
Unfolds me a little more, sets me free
I'm no longer tore between what I want to be
I'm sitting upon steps, 3000 years passed by
As the sun's up high, sitting in the sky
It's been there for longer than I care to know
It's so amazingly high, yet I'm so low
It's so tall, and I'm so small
That passing of time I don't understand at all
It's a view I rarely see myself through
We should all look and find something so new

Many things today lead me astray
I can't seem to speak everything I want to say
So I take solace in colors and light
Things so bright, the stars and the night
Halfway across the world, they look a bit strange
These things are new, they seem to have changed
The reality of this view helps me shine through
I'm so insignificant, but my time's true

So even though I will never change the world
I open new things as I tumble and twirl
I change my pace, because I can't change my face
My whole being becomes different as I change my place
Yes, I'm small, but I can still stand tall
And yes, I'm not perfect, I'll falter and fall
But like the sun and the stars I'll continue to go
And like the leaves on the trees I'll continue to grow
