There's nothing wrong with you. There's a lot wrong with the world you live in. - Chris Colfer



The bird flies away as I climb the ladder

The cars drive past without stopping

I can see everything more clearly

From up on top of the roof


The children down the street play and yell, having fun

and I hear Christmas music from a house

They cannot disturb me; I simply enjoy

Being on top of the roof


I feel the wind, blowing without stopping

And I lose my cares to it

I lean back and sigh doing nothing but

Relaxing on top of the roof


I know that it’s been half an hour

And I’ll have to get down soon

There are things to do, but I cannot wait

until I can get back on top of the roof
