Leaving Behind

Don't try to explain

I've been here before

The phone calls and the letters of loved ones

Always prying to and implying that when

The stormy sides of dreams arrive

I'm feeling the consequences

Hit

I've tried to escape

I'm drifting from shore

The bough breaks from the weight of loved ones

Who leave us gliding forward and flying out

When the sunny sides of dreams have

Died I'll feel the consequences

Lift

I've tried to explain

But the right words feel wrong

Big mistakes feel the well when the love is gone

And now there is crying and good-bying

No

I've had enough I've had too much

The feeling strains me

I've had too much

This feeling drains me

With so much at stake

I'm leaving behind the shortcuts

To find

The long way home
