Autumn Leaves

Emotionless pale face
Cried again today
Don't worry it's nothing new
Clouds bring raindrops
Wet her bare feet up
The grass tears turn to dew

Slow pace
Lightweight
Heartache
Snowflakes
Staring up at the moon
Beautiful girl
In her beautiful world
But beauty leaves so soon

Autumn leaves die
When winter comes by
Summer birds fly away
Just like beauty
Just like youth it
Will always slowly fade

That's what we're afraid of
Hide every bit don't take the mask off

Leads herself towards the center of the forest
Black thorns prick her under roses
Even though it's difficult
She'll hurt to be beautiful

Timing timing see it turning
I'm running running away
Timing timing see it ticking
Can I stop and stay

Hopeful bright face
Smiling all day
Happiest she's been all week
Sun brought daylight
Running around the whole time
With grass under her bare feet

Fast pace
Red face
Bright cheeks
Heart race
Staring at herself
Imperfect girl
In a strange big world
Happiest she's ever felt

Autumn leaves die
When winter comes by
Summer birds fly away
Let them roam free
Maybe you'll see
A little more to what's inside

Leads herself towards the center of the forest
Plain leaves never looked so perfect
It's not so difficult
When you don't have to be beautiful

Timing timing see it turning
I'm sitting watching it sway
Timing timing see it ticking
Here I stop and stay
