I chose the tree-covered path
So you couldn't see me leaving
Once we both lived the same past
But you couldn't hear me screaming
We close our eyes
To sever the truth from the lies
We were wrong, too far gone
To see there's dark after the light
We close our eyes
I painted a picture for you
Of who you wanted me to be
The outline was dark and bold
But the colors had gone completely
So you couldn't see me leaving
Once we both lived the same past
But you couldn't hear me screaming
We close our eyes
To sever the truth from the lies
We were wrong, too far gone
To see there's dark after the light
We close our eyes
I painted a picture for you
Of who you wanted me to be
The outline was dark and bold
But the colors had gone completely
