These autumn leafs
have my feet
silenced
to a hush
Part of them fear being forgotten
in an unknown place
the rest know
that Mama's still afraid
that I'll just run away.
Letting go and letting be
I don't know where you came from
oh in and out
in and out
inside of me
breathing
doing your best
when I needed sympathy
And this rambling town
running through my mind
Searching for another key
Read somewhere
you got the fire
from a man
called himself truth
he said
leaving don't mean
as much as it does to you
Secrets that destroy
the ears they touch
and now you're cursed
hopefully it won't
hurt as much
it's win or lose
darlin'
you get to choose
darlin'
Oh
Baby broken bones
I'd have never known
I had no chance
all along
oh and the way
I used to feel
so alone
and I've got the wits to prove it
Destroyed
Distorted
the heart that I could save
turned it into stone
so memories
are just phantoms
chasing us through
the twilight of tomorrow
And the story
is always the same
tell me I'm unusual
knowing it won't be
the first or the last
say
it's far too good to pass up
have my feet
silenced
to a hush
Part of them fear being forgotten
in an unknown place
the rest know
that Mama's still afraid
that I'll just run away.
