Leaves are dry and marigold beneath our feet
Above our heads a subtle blue
We lay in silence so this silence is our bed
Cinnamon and earth we breathe
We breathe
And I keep it all inside
We climb these branches bending to our weight
I find the safest way into your arms
If I'm doing well you're pulling more than they would know
Who could ever fell this tree?
Of you and me
I keep it all inside
No one sees the beauty in an ordinary life
The days are turning into sleepless nights
But I keep it all inside
I can walk this silence with a brave face
So no one has to feel the weight I feel
This isn't giving up it's knowing when to let it go
I would never give up on you.
I forgive you
These limbs are bare now
With no signs of green
The promise of a new day
Blossoms underneath
We keep it all inside
Flowers of the mourning paint an ordinary life
The days are turning into sleepless nights
But I keep it all inside
