Dead Trees

Is it too late to break away?
This is the bed we made
We stand here in disarray
A screaming serenade

Night after night
I could never see the answers in your eyes, that's when I sold my soul again
Time after time
I could never see the answers in my lies, that's when I sold my soul again

You push me to jealousy
You're hungry for my pain
I break you down relentlessly
Your passion has been drained

Night after night
I could never see the answers in your eyes, that's when I sold my soul again
Time after time
I could never see the answers in my lies, that's when I sold my soul again

Night after night
I could never see the answers in your eyes, that's when I sold my soul again
Time after time
I could never see the answers in my lies, that's when I sold my soul again

I'm tired and weak and I cannot see
The blackened forest among dead trees. It's scary
We broke the rules in the games we played
And wore out the fire to question each day together
Slowly but surely driving me to the bottle
I'm drowning in guilt, a failed role model to everyone

In time we will know whether we can grow apart

It would be hard for me to go and believe
That by the end we'd be enemies forever
Giving up now, it's explained to me
That I don't love you and you don't love me. I'm sorry
I'm packing my bag and I'm hitting the road
I'm starting anew with my dreams to sew and prosper

In time we will know if we can grow apart
