You can't turn back again
Where is your hope?
That keep you from falling down
There's no need to pretend
Is not the same thing as needing
Now it's just the same old joke
And laughing
How my heart aches
What are we really learning
But seeing
How come you keep on talking
You think you're not to blame
Tiny leaves from small seeds
Is so different to keeping
The grass is growing greener
You struggle on and on
You do it so politely
When the whole thing feels so strange?
When everything goes wrong
It's all gone up in smoke
But wanting
More than I can take
The hurting that we send
Is so very close to dying
To tall trees do grow
When we make the same mistakes?
It's all bittersweet
Is not the same as believing
Hold on to the good things
Is so difficult to mend
When everything has changed
That you couldn't even tell
Outside in the street
To find where you belong
Deep water flows
We come and go
You used to be so funny
Is so very close to crying
Hold on to the good things
When there's nothing to defend
And loving
That keep you from falling down
Underneath your feet
It gets you in the end
You're anything but strong
And living
