Story Behind the Song
Well, I was trying to get my neice to fall to sleep because her mother had a head ache, so I was back on my sisters bed with her in the back of our house, and I was laying on the bed and she ended up falling asleep on me. so I stayed there for maybe two hours, jsut thinking, and pondering all the stuff that might be important in her future.
Lyrics
as I lay here upon my sisters bed, with my infant niece and her delicate head.
sleeping upon my chest shes so warm, yet shivers as the breeze comes with no warn.
i drift deep into thoughts and dreams of my own, and fantasies that I have known.
i think of my family and friends I have had, remembering the days that didnt seem sad.
hot summer days with cool summer nights, playing all day without any fights.
opinions were nothing, werent needed by me, they held no real value, would you not agree?
it didnt matter what religion I was, nor did it matter if I might be brainwashed.
i had no worries, no troubles you see, i was a mear child, a bit older then three.
nobody cared what clothes i wore, if i matched, or if I was a poor.
girls and boys could be friends, without any ill intensions, no induced logic to control our situations.
the world i once knew has so greatly changed, its become very perverted and very deranged.
what kind of world is my generation making, all the opportunities they'll be taking.
will my neice know the person I was, the family I had, and what is the cause..
of the downfall of this entire world, as I watch all the dreams I once had be unfurled?
i ponder of the things i could do to improve, but all of the things would need the world to approve.
as i look apon her, so peacefully untainted, i know that I cannot leave this unpainted.
so i sit here now in my chair, very tired, yet struggle to finish this piece i've conspired.
she shivers again, back to reality i go, as i feel the breeze, so gently it blows.
as i cuddle my niece, and i feel her grip squeeze, i know that i'll charish this violet summer breeze.
