lyrics

Today I found out something
I wish I didn’t know
but I can’t go back,
no, I can’t go back.

I almost went off somewhere
I didn’t mean to go,
now that gate’s already closed.

Why did you falter?
Why?

It makes me want to bury my head
in the summer sand
but I can’t go back,
no, I can’t go back.

I wanted to show you pretty things
that weren’t mine to lend,
so they can’t be yours to have.

I dreamed I was younger,
a babe in the woods.
We were innocent creatures—
nothing but good.

Examining closer
a hole in your wall—
what could become of this,
after all?
