Fallen Leaves & Dead Sparrows

There’s a bridge not far from here I tend to cross from time to time A secret pathway I hold dear it leads me to the other side I keep these visits for myself I guess it’s hard to understand Not a choice anymore, it’s out of my hands And yet again I can hear her voice calling me... Everything that I know to be real is in you Why I left when I did, that mistake I can’t undo Give me a few second chances let me start this all anew All that’s real is in you Staring down the void teared by the years I was away it looks eternal, all-consuming way too much for any man to bear Staring down the void teared by the years I was away it’s ever-deep I know but hell if I don’t patch it with that once was there Staring down the void... Staring down the void... Everything that I know to be real is in you Why I left when I did, that mistake I can’t undo Give me a few second chances, let me start this all anew Everything that I know to be real is you Everything that I know to be real is in you Why I left when I did, that mistake I can’t undo Give me a few second chances, let me start this all anew All that’s real is you All I know to be real is you

Another hallway, staring at the door It’s been a while now but I’ve been here before The marks are there still it’s not quite the same If this is it why don’t I recognize the name? The wind brings a warning, misses ear by a mile Shadows make it all worthwhile Like a flood all returning, most with a smile Helping to make it worthwhile Come out come out now, yeah the joke’s on me Can we please go back now to the way things used to be? A useless search for a familiar face Not a single one found from this place The wind brings a warning, misses ear by a mile Shadows make it all worthwhile Like a flood all returning, most with a smile Helping to make it worthwhile

The sun’s coming down, and I’m still sleeping No crossed over words or lines in this list that I’m keeping To blame it on time, prime reason for falling Insist that it flies when it’s you who’s been crawling Tied ‘em down to prolong a stay If only for one more day Pushing them all away No shackle or iron chain Immune to this kind of strain Caved under a tide of pain Nails now long gone, red and ivory How I wish that you’d reach out for me Shadow rising, staring down at me calling A study of minds of those most persistent Cut someone deep enough to prove I existed A blink of an eye, there, now I missed it Fifteen turned twenty-nine despite my attempts to resist it Tied ‘em down to prolong a stay If only for one more day Pushing them all away No shackle or iron chain Immune to this kind of strain Caved under a tide of pain

Packed my bags and stormed away left you here for dead I thought I knew it all for which there’s something to be said Oh, won’t you help me find my way? Oh, guide me to a better day Did you foresee me returning crawling back on my knees Saw the ego and the damage done going through pockets for the master key Hills reviving memories Shores spilling secrets from my side Streets telling stories worth holding onto alright They say home’s where the heart is and I’ve been homeless for years It took a gentle summer breeze to finally dry off the tears Hills reviving memories Shores spilling secrets from my side Streets telling stories worth holding onto alright Hills reviving memories Waves drawing blueprints in the sand Streets in all of their glory reaching for my hand Packed my bags and stormed away, left you here for dead...

Ain’t seen the blue sky in who knows how long still I’m searching for shade As I lay down, my head on a stone Taking in the price I paid Met an old man, saw fear in his eyes His words still ring in my head I should’ve listened, I could’ve at least tried but chose to turn my back instead Bring out the sun, paint with light Bring out the sun, make it right “This place is not for you It never was, but that you knew Things will never be the same” ”If all you loved has changed If all the good seems gone you’ve only got yourself to blame” Home – look elsewhere Help – none here Hope – it’s all gone Faith - try fear Words are worthless, acts define You keep staring at the spaces between the lines A lost child who thinks he’s running away Ha! You’re barely existing All that remain are stories scenes played out in a daydream All that have cared now mourning trying to set you free Trace your steps all you want it won’t take you back Instead of the third act a fade to black From the ashes of pride a scar is born Nothing left from the roses now but the thorns Getting close now, I can feel it Soon I’ll reclaim control The thing I fear most is to lose it all All that remain are stories scenes played out in a daydream All that have cared now mourning trying to set you free All that remain are stories scenes played out in a daydream All that have cared now mourning trying to set you free This place is not for me It never was, that now I finally see Things can never be the same again Everything I ever loved has changed And all I saw as good seems now long gone And there’s no-one left but myself to blame

Hey, it’s good to see you again All those moons, it’s been a while Wait, I have a few things to say I think we’ve used up all of our denial With all that we’ve been through We are the same, me and you Hey, did you go and make amends With all those dreams you left behind Say, you really think you’ll be content by letting fear take over pride as you lock the door and keep inside As the themes keep moving forward, so should you No other choice but to continue, to see this through It might be all too late The wrong turn written in your fate It might be all too late The wrong turn written in your fate As the themes keep moving forward, so should you No other choice but to continue, to see this through As the themes keep moving forward, so should you No other choice but to continue, to see this through

Eyes Don’t lie to me I know it’s there It has to be Eyes Why can’t I see My way away Away from here Fallen leaves, mistake for dead sparrows No more purpose in a turn of a stone The road to ruin paved uneven and narrow For the journey’s to be taken alone This is now shelter This is now home Unconditional love, what a fool I must’ve been Blind faith, infinite trust are to blame for this mess that I’m in Walls tilting forward Air getting thin Mirror the reason why all is not well Eternal wild meadows turned into a cell I waited, wasted all this time Aching for, wanting more Awaken, the blindfold’s off my eyes Forgotten souls were built to fall Old lover with a dagger a black widow dressed in white Weakened by my wounds I stagger trying to crawl into the light You’ll apply the pressure keep my fingers from the cuts Hold me here with you forever staring out the windows shut ”Lay right here in my arms rest your head for a while To be real is to hurt to stay here is to die” I waited, wasted all this time Aching for, wanting more Awaken, the blindfold’s off my eyes Forgotten souls were built to fall See my dreams unchained, undone See all clear, all right, all gone See my dreams undone See all clear, all gone
