Branch

Here it comes, back down, momentary
Here it comes, polite and ordinary
Like an old friend, like a storm
A forgotten childhood toy
Takes me back, twists my insides, gives me hope
Makes me cry, makes me useless, gives me joy
Oh I can't control myself when you're around
Won't you please, leave me alone

There I go, outside, empty handed
Heavy bags, confused, noisy canvas
Trying hard to keep you out
I am fine with what I've found
But not you, you remind me what I lost
All the youth, all the trust I left behind
Oh I can't give in to all your dissonance
Won't you please, stay out of sight

So I'll go, awake every morning
So I'll go, alert to your charms
I won't let you in tonight
Your pathetic black and white
Has gone bland, has grown tired, cold and sad
Just a masked faceless coward looking back
Well I won't be that person anymore
Won't you close your eyes, goodbye
Won't you close your eyes, goodbye
