I might be in over my head
This boulder is rolling down the cliffside
I only wanted to share my joy
But I might lose what I find most precious
The harsh light causes me to shut my eyes
But its warmth still causes me to smile
And reaching up, pull the shutters closed
I wonder if there is a way to have
Both the light and darkness
My indecision has cost me in the past
There are ghost that whisper my name
Hard drives can never be truly erased
Everyone has files that can’t be deleted
Sometimes it’s easier to just share space
If you don’t share all your secrets
What you don’t know can’t be held against you
I’m afraid I don’t know anything at all
I’m a student of the universe
Teach me, for I’m a blank canvas
