You are not the one
To tell me go
The long and winding road
Turning over stones
Walking past the tress
They’re begging to me please
The red and brown and green
The way they used to bleed
The truth begins to blow
but the leaves refuse to show
The other side of stem
But its not up to them
Afraid to linger
Or gaze for too long
Try to fool you and I
That I’m really that strong
Afraid to linger
Or gaze for too long
Try too fool you and I
That I want to be strong
I turn the page
Re read the words
I just can’t believe
It took a turn for the worst
Read between the lines
To find the vines
As the hidden message reads
You must have been blind
To of wasted your time
Hiding inside
So now we must play
Today’s another day
Afraid to linger
Or gaze for too long
Try to fool you and I
That I’m really that strong
Afraid to linger
Or gaze for too long
Try too fool you and I
That I want to be strong
I know that you know
That I know that you know
