Forest

I couldn't take it, I ran out of time
I packed my bags with bricks and bones and began my decline
When I was with you I was alone in a way
I was thrown to the wolves to solve the problem
So you'd be okay
And then the forest got cold at night
It was no surprise
I tried to win you over but lost the fight
All through the night it was so hard to see
Who I was gonna be
When I lost you I lost that part of me
That tells me who I really am when I wonder
Why I should fight another day
With all the stress I'm under
Now I'm a lightbulb that never shines
I'm a map nobody finds
I am a stick figure without the lines

I took the fall, I took the rest of the blame
I thought we'd come out on the other side and feel the same
But I have never been so wrong in my life
Thought I was strong but I was just a boy with shoes the wrong size
And oh the forest gets so cold at night
It was no surprise
I tried to win you over but lost the fight
And all the animals made fun of me
Who was I gonna be
Thought I was done for and then suddenly
I could see somebody new where I hide
I hope she's not like you
With gentle eyes but cold inside
Wish I could tell her what I'm going through
She makes me nervous too
Just like with you
The best ones always do
