Wake up and climb out
You stand in front of the wall
Lookin at the map you put up
Wanderin in the fall
Sheltered coves and harbours
Shallow water to forgiving shores
Something will come up
Towards shadows you crawl
I remember when I first met you
We walked up the hill in the rain
I didn't think I had a chance
To you it was all the same
In time we were forsaken
By freedom by hope and fear
I don't know all that I've learned
But I'm thankful for these tears
It wasn't just a dream
Illusion is reality
And one thing bleeds into the next
As you remember and forget
There's only so much you can do
There's so little to say
Especially for us
But we don't need to go through that again
