Erase the Black

I don’t want to think about the things I can’t control
Or the slippery mud in the deceptive hole
I don’t want to ponder about the wiles of the world
The red blanket mysteries of a simplistic girl

Not any of the pain or the long winded sorrow
Just the right plan for a better tomorrow
I want to hold on tight and skate on through
To that utopic place that you and I grew

So take a walk through the hallway of dreams
And avoid the door of the tortured screams
We'll scratch and crawl up the hill of fate
And wash away all fear and mistake

So here I am with my arms out wide
For you to pack your bags and rest inside
Shed your bricks and rest right here
Born to travel to your frontier

Shed the load that you carry every day
Like a semi-sweet dessert on a golden tray
Open your heart and never look back
And give me your love and erase the black
