    lay your fragile head down
    close your life beaten eyes
    dive deep to reach what you don't know
    make the subconscience the conscience

    climb the mountain in your heart
    and swim the ocean in your eyes
    reach the other side
    the side they call reality

    under take your task with pride
    assure yourself you're ready
    but before you go close your eyes
    and kiss me one last time




    meh... i don't like it very much... it needs something but i don't know what... anyone have any ideas????

    There are some lines that sparkle...'climb the mountain in your heart/swim the ocean in your eyes'. Love 'em. If you want to move it up a tier, shorten some of the scans:
    Lay your head down
    Close your beaten eyes
    Dive to reach what you don't know
    And bring it where your conscience lies....something like that. Good luck!

    alright, i changed the ending but i still think it needs something. should i keep something at the end about a goodbye (but before you go close your eyes and kiss me one last time)????

    lay your fragile head down

    close your life beaten eyes

    dive to reach what you don't know

    make the subconscious conscious



    climb the mountain in your heart

    and swim the ocean in your eyes

    reach the other side

    the side they call reality



    under take your task with pride

    assure yourself you're ready

    let nothing get in your way

    your way into yourself
