A Gentle Reminder |
| Burst, and I’m awake |
| Now not straight from these woods we had known |
| And in the dark they gathered there |
| With ropes woven from strands of your hair |
| And like these kings that came before |
| I fell asleep on this strange forest floor |
| And they would spirit you away |
| And in the dances you gave up your throne |
| You’re breaking your back to be alone |
| Refusing this kindness you were shown |
| It doesn’t mean anything anyway |
| It doesn’t mean |
| Beneath this canopy of trees |
| I wrap my arms around my knees |
| And rocking gently back to sleep |
| As I collapse into the deep |
| With these words that we exchange |
| This isn’t finished |
| I couldn’t bare to let you go |
| I couldn’t bare to let you go |
| Exhausted and estranged |
| Testing your limits |
| This isn’t fair, I didn’t know |
| I couldn’t bare to let you go |
| And it’s a risk, but I resist |
| Now it’s my wish that you will |
| Somehow |
| And you have everything you need |
| With this compass and map you ignore |
| You can’t make yourself believe |
| Discontent but you still wanted more |
| And at the swollen riverbank |
| You tried to cross |
| But you sank like a stone |
| You’re breaking your back to be alone |
| Refusing this kindness you were shown |
| It doesn’t mean anything anyway |
| It doesn’t mean |
| Beneath this canopy of trees |
| I wrap my arms around my knees |
| And rocking gently back to sleep |
| As I collapse into the deep |
| With these words that we exchange |
| This isn’t finished |
| I couldn’t bare to let you go |
| I couldn’t bare to let you go |
| Exhausted and estranged |
| Testing your limits |
| This isn’t fair, I didn’t know |
| I couldn’t bare to let you go |
| And from the moment you arrived |
| You had seemed so frustrated |
| You had tried to leave this all behind to me |
| And like a fool you had traded |
| They motion you inside to sleep |
| From such a steep and narrow climb |
| These arrows at your feet were signs |
| And I could feel you frustrated |
| With these words that we exchange |
| This isn’t finished |
| I couldn’t bare to let you go |
| I couldn’t bare to let you go |
| Exhausted and estranged |
| Testing your limits |
| This isn’t fair, I didn’t know |
| I couldn’t bare to let you go |
| A burst, and I’m awake now |
| And now straight from these woods |
| We had known |
