The Beginning

Wait, don't go

I've been walking through

These woods shivering in these new clothes

And I, I wanted to see

The world through eyes

But they were never meant for me

It was placed just right, to catch

The eyes, we waited completely naked

But never underestimate the lie, that kind

That breaks it, the whole life that you tasted

I thought I heard her say

I don't want to go

But the words hurt more than I thought through

And nothing leaves you quite as cold

As my father's back turned on me

When you take someone down the garden path

You take someone for all they have

And death

Was only a word

But to a jealous heart that has made its plans

It was the soil that gave it birth

And the sun it’s light there on me

Shone through the clouds and upon my feet

To the ground that we chose as a door to leave

Die for one man

I was so in love. I was just so young and so in love.

How could I say no to the hand that was built for me

I saw it so clear, like the first day you laughed or said my name

I couldn't say no, but we both know, we both know

We would have been changed like the days of our lives

(The illusion was ours, it was joy it was rapture)

Oh this place is a hell with its death and goodbyes

And you can't stop yourself when you’re dreaming of days

But these pieces will fade until there's only this place

In this world that’s to come, it's only the fear

Was there ever a moment, just

A moment the truth could touch our lips

Would it have mattered, the harvest will come

If I would have chosen another

It would have meant I loved him more than you
