When I witnessed the water freeze I knew I could melt it back And when I breathed that simple breath I felt the coming exhale. Dust can be blown away The kingdoms all fall one day But my ink-paved path is forever dry. Trying to grab the stones I've thrown And force them back in through the door But you cannot catch the bird that's flown. The things you drop may tumble away But they will always be seen as a look in your eye. Tired of driving down that road You find yourself farther away from your wheels But what marks did you make when all was close? Stop anytime, it's all paved down For rain to never wash away. The tree is chopped and you've closed the case This ink is down, you cannot erase.
