Safe Way Out

Maybe there will be stories to be heard
When you finally step on these lands again
With your baby all grown up at the time
And she asks you how much you miss your friend

And no, you won't be able to hide
The pain and the reasons that led to that
But I'll always know inside this broken heart
That the winds will never blow at our end

Burn me
Bury
My face under your ground
Walk me as you feign not looking down
Let it
Take you
Somewhere you can move on
And when you think you're ready to forgive
No one will be there

And I know you came back to that same place
Which you eagerly tried to talk me out of
That's the same place you forced me to go to
When you selfishly tried to control things

And baby, it was much easier to run
Than to face this cloud of large emotions
But the truth is always kept myself
Open to you, even when shouldn't

Burn me
Bury
My face under your ground
Walk me as you feign not looking down
Let it
Take you
Somewhere you can move on
And when you think you're ready to forgive
No one will be there
