Hawthorne

Lay down, underneath the hawthorne
Staring through your cross hairs, waiting on the cue to pull
Well, it has been a long haul
With no one there to cheer you on
And now you're looking tired as hell
With question marks along your arm

Lay down, underneath the hawthorne
Your hanging off the fire escape
With nothing there to break the fall
I was just a kid back then, everything's been written off
Now I am your protection
And you are someone I adore

I saw you running through the halls
With your hair undone
You had no care at all
And I saw you dancing in the storm
With your arms up
You had no care at all

Lay down, underneath the hawthorne
It's now we start to question
All of the things that we've been told
The hours come in unison, since when did I become so boring?
I'm drawing out the perfect scene
But it always leads me to confusion

I saw you, back against the wall
Swinging at everyone
You had no care at all
And I saw you dancing in the storm
With your arms up
You had no care at all

I saw you, singing your favorite song
With your eyes shut
As loud as you could
And I saw you dancing in the storm
With both hands up
You didn't care at all
