Golden Leaf

Cigarette filters and squeaky white beds
This is what your life is now
Unoriginal mixtures of teenage lifestyles
But we're only having fun

You think that they dragged you down
So you kept running away from it all
Hiding your face and you're changing shapes
Now you're having fun on your own

But the past is full of faces that you're missing
And your innocence is dissolving day by day
You know the leaves are only golden cause they're dying
So at least don't let us watch you change again
So at least don't let us watch you change again

You're slipping through every hand that tries to hold you
Moving fast through what you leave behind
And there's pieces of your memories of people
In the coffins of your faces that have died

And now everyone looks down when you're still falling
But in the end you'll find a place to land
And I hope you'll never have to look back darling
And climb your way up in our tree again
Won't you climb your way up in our tree again
