Why do we cry
While brushing away the tears
Like leaves in the autumn wind
Leaving behind barren souls
Stripped of colors
Cleaned out and empty

Shouldn't have to be this way
Show and tell with me today
If there's something on your mind
Go ahead and say it
I'll do what I can
To start a new forest

I am only another hypocrite
Shriveling in the silence
Because inside I cry too
While trying to break the habit
Don't withdraw like me
Don't falter like me

I've heard they say
'Fall is the most beautiful of seasons'
Is despair truly that beautiful?
The last breath of life so serene?
Let's make a new forest
Run away with me and we'll live again
