Someone left the door open,
and we somehow lost our way.
Who will come save us,
from wasting away.
The city and the trees beyond,
the past and the times to come.
Rainfall to the summer sun,
what will be at the end.. of it all.
The tall dark mountains,
the sparkling sea.
Yet we are still,
as lost as we can be.
We've never wanted all too much,
never been out at the front.
I don't miss the colder months,
and you don't miss being shunned.
So I guess the story goes,
when we walk out here all alone.
Water seeping through our toes,
maybe we've both always known.
That what you give is what you get,
but what you say ain't what you meant
they say these trees just can't forget,
and we can't see the path ahead.
