Kicking The Trees

I was not too young to understand
But I'm older now
I was not too weak to run away
And I'm colder now
And all that I have to show for it
Are the callouses
But otherwise I am right back
Where I began
And that's okay

Every kick is a tear
That I won't shed
That I'm stronger than

I saw a pair of shooting stars
And I knew you were close
And I knew it meant that you were proud
I could feel it in my bones
And that means everything
And all that I have to remedy
This bitter taste
Is kicking the trees in the orchard
And watching the fruit fall

Every kick is a tear
That I won't shed
That I'm stronger than
I am strong enough
