I opened my textbooks and began to read
First time in a while, determined to win
I opened my eyes, poured water in a glass
I lit a candle and let the time pass.

But thousand of thoughts flew right through my mind
All of the things I thought I left behind
They became alive once again, as if they were set free
All of the things that were hidden in me.

So I opened the window, and locked my front door
Letting the rain scatter across the floor
Letting the clouds come along with the wind
Watering flowerpots where I grew mint.

I tried to let go of the thoughts in my head
I stretched my arms and jumped out of bed
Letting the freshness clean the dirt off my mind
Leaving old memories far, far behind.
