looking back i find 
many holes along the path 
where there once was only kindness, oh 

i saw you far away 
with that same old knowing grin 
that would melt the fears i had about our love 

you and i we ran, 
yeah we hoped we'd never lose this thought 
we'd keep it close next to our heart 
favoring our wants 
we repelled what darkness wrought 
the reality of where we are 
and where we've been 

cold, dead trees
