A play on words

 

The sky’s the limit
Your expectations too high
Up on the wall overhead.
What’s wrong with this picture?
On a tilt
Your head back
To the future
Is ours to sea
Of dead calm
Before the storm
Warning
Lightning strikes
Three and you’re out
Of control
Your emotions
Are running away with you
Look up to the skies
Forming each dark cloud
Has a silver lining
Tearing the fabricated stories
Told from a vision of beauty
Is only skin deep
Down in the valley
Of the Kings
With their knights
Of the round table
Dance to this song
Being played
Like a fool
Who never dares to Russian
Roulette
A game of life or death,
Is a beginning
Not a means to an end
Your life
Looks beyond your wildest dreams
Are for dreamers
Never die
