Leaves

I cannot explain the failsafe of a mental note
Binding, to hold me all in place

Erasing, a daydream
All my thoughts they seem to drift away

I'm fading now
I'm safe in sound

If seasons change then why do leaves delay?
To fall back down, and face the ground

All my thoughts they carry me away

Beneath the wave
I saw myself standing there, wide awake

It's all too soon
It's hard to tell
When I'll be still again
(With absence comes clarity, When absence comes)
Who could anticipate patience?
For all we know, It's time to turn the page
But life shuffles in place, All those dreams just fade
Complacency is bound to show its face

I'm fading now
I'm safe in sound

If seasons change then why do leaves decay?
Soon, when your life's in full bloom
We'll make light of it soon
When your life's in full bloom

Beneath the wave
I saw myself standing there, wide awake

It's all too soon
It's hard to tell

When I'll be still again
Wake up, don't forget me now
(With Absence, Comes Clarity)
