Under Fire

Looking out the window, it's beautiful out there

Give me reasons to remember

The summer trees are stripped and almost bare

It's late September

Come the sun to kiss it better

Thank god for understanding

It seemed that we were under you

It looked like you were under fire

I know the love was never true

The moment we refused to fight

It seemed that I was never right

Walking another sleepless dream

And now everything I leave behind

I leave

For you

Look into the mirror, what am I?

A frightened creature, locked inside

My Mother's hair, my Father's eyes

Memories time rearranged for you

As everything changed for you

Did they make it better?

Thank god for understanding

It seemed that we were under you

It looked like you were under fire

It seemed the love was never true

The moment we refused to fight

I know that I was never right

Walking another sleepless dream

And everything I leave behind

I leave

For you
