The Leaf

When everything is said and done

There's no way back nowhere to run

The leaf has fallen, the sun has set

Nowhere to run and no way back

The walls grew tall too high to climb

Trenches build up in the minds

The heads they hurt

The souls they cry

The hearts they drift

You cut the tie

When everything is said and done

There's no way back nowhere to run

The leaf has fallen, the sun has set

Nowhere to run and no way back

The damage done

The fight is lost

Weakened bodies in the mud

The wounds they heal

The scars they stay

The lesson learned

The price is paid

When everything is said and done

There's no way back nowhere to run

The leaf has fallen, the sun has set

Nowhere to run and no way back

And sometimes I feel the wind is pushing me sideways off of the tracks

And sometimes I find myself looking back

When everything is said and done

There's no way back nowhere to run

The leaf has fallen, the sun has set

Nowhere to run and no way back
