| Now you look at me lost here
|
| On my street
|
| Another beautiful mind is changing
|
| Violently wake me from my dreams
|
| Another beautiful body shakened
|
| Are the doors that I opened closing in?
|
| All the words that I spoke now frozen
|
| And now that I’m taller am I too thin?
|
| And now it’s time to decide
|
| Would I rather be blind?
|
| I don’t wanna defy my own
|
| I don’t wanna rely on a perfect home
|
| I just wanna survive
|
| I just wanna survive
|
| With rose colored eyes
|
| It’s in the trees of the forest, waiting
|
| It’s in the smell of the wood we’re burning
|
| It’s in the touch of the pine
|
| The change in my eyes
|
| I don’t wanna to defy my own
|
| I don’t wanna rely on a perfect home
|
| I just wanna survive
|
| I just wanna survive
|
| With rose colored eyes
|
| It’s the shape of her back as she weeps over his body
|
| As we sing our little songs in the hospital room
|
| The sound of your voice as I search your words for meaning
|
| Is there beauty in the breathing?
|
| Even when that breathing’s left
|
| And the tree that we had planted now grows strong inside my chest
|
| I will walk for all these miles just to
|
| Find what I have left within myself
|
| Self (self, self) |
