Stream
If you laid in the stream it would carry you away,
Even the moon would turn its back on you at the start of a new day,
This was a path I had walked down before,
The only difference this time is how it wages a new war,
This was not a battle to be won,
We are at the end of the road but neither of us are done,
You made this game and you knew how to play,
Each move you made went your way,
I couldn’t forget all that I saw,
So we could say there was nothing left to do but shut that door,
I laid in that stream and I let it carry me away.
