at the first i wasted all my life
i hid in darkened rooms
i didn't know what waited on the other side
of where i knew
at the first i kept my silent hopes
i hid them in my heart
from the people who were all afraid
to tear the world apart
but i'm not
at the first i crossed unwritten lines
i heard unspoken dreams
come from places that i'd never been
with long forgotten kings
i saw the wishes from the falling stars
i felt them hit the sea
while the light came from the rising sun
and scattered through the leaves
and i saw
in the woods i found a faithful friend
who spent their days with me
we laughed and cried and shared our hopes
before i had to leave
then the sound of crowds came rolling through
i woke up in the streets
with the people who were all afraid
to live and seek their dreams
and i said
i can't wait until i find you again
where have you been?
i miss you
carry me until i find the time to spend
in the trees again
i can hear you calling
