My Only Witness

Hiding from my dreams I feel myself running faster Leaves on dying trees my only witness I'm left standing beside myself it seems The darkness of your forest engulfs my spirit Alone and scared, tears trickle past my hope I can't escape from my past, I pretend to cope Abandon the truth that is clearly visible Subsidized meaning behind your smile The weight of your words becomes more like a memory Remember when all men were taught chivalry It was a lesson it seems to be lacking in the present Venture past the brink of what was possible I can not argue with the logic of the reason But as summer sets we are in the cycle of seasons As predictable as the words from my mouth
