Serene

Once everyone who has heard this song has faded in time

The markings etched into the bark cling slowly as they’re entwined

And in plain sight, from the tallest hill in town, the secret fades

Of the two who smiled wide that autumn day

Learning to see things all the ways they ought to be

I’ve stopped the bleeding and I’m feeling good and ready

To stop believing somebody will throw a rope

And build a ladder from the tools digging this hole has broke

Once cumbersome troubles, come and gone, have been washed away

Twice as many nice things entice me to hold out for better days

I wasn’t good enough. I wasn’t good enough, I see

But that's more than, that's more than enough for me

Learning to see things all the ways they ought to be

I’ve stopped the bleeding and I’m feeling good and ready

To stop believing somebody with throw a rope

A build a ladder from the tools digging this hole has broke

I miss warm serenity

But I know I’ll find

Another way to fight

Find my way to spring
