Listening as the sun vanishes
The crunch of the leaves and smell of the rain
Shadows cast by trees against the sky
Not a house in sight
The cold November gray
I can still hear voices shouting
Feeling like I've got no escape
I'm sure that I'm right, but they think I'm wrong
I'll never be them
As much as they want
The world fades away, forget yesterday
A silent rain drizzles from above
All alone, running through the woods
I wish I could stay
My solitary hiding place
Up and down hills, there's no end in sight
I can't take my mind off of their words
Suddenly, I have to stop
And catch my breath
Feel the pound of my heart
The world fades away, forget yesterday
A silent rain drizzles from above
All alone, running through the woods
I wish I could stay
My solitary hiding place
I know they mean well, and it must be rough
Telling me the way they feel
But man how I hope, they'll see from my side
I really should leave, it's time to go home
The stream trickles past, like hope washed away
I know I must face those faces again
But I can't resist
I turn the other way
