In the end they were doing fine
With an alright timbre and a one track mind
They were gifted all the love in the world
And they traded it all for a blackened pearl
Looking back it's so easy to see
I'm sure you've made mistakes,
Same as them,
Same as me
But I can see all the choices you make
I can see you standing in the open air
Giving your bones to the earth
Signing off without knowing so
As the mud and the muck start to mix with the snow
And now the holes in your shoes matter not
Like a moth who's ripped off it's wings when it's caught
Looking back it's so easy to see
I'm sure you've made mistakes,
Same as them,
Same as me
But I can see all the choices you make
I can see you standing in the open air
Giving your bones to the earth
