Leaves on Parade - Driveways

She said come out and look at the leaves on parade

They flooded the sky

But you know I can’t wait for the season to change

We’re just watching them die

When I peeled back the layers and looked at the truth

I saw what I feared

Just a person that can’t comprehend the abuse

That pretends not to hear you now

The colors looks beautiful

Red and yellow rivers in the street

But to them it’s a funeral

There’s death in the deceit

I’m not worth it

You can’t fall back now

I’m imperfect

My failures could bury me under the ground

A long ride home

An October view

And I know you miss the mountainside

The foliage is out tonight

And dying to look beautiful for you

I wish I wouldn’t break

An evergreen that winter couldn’t shake

I tend to dream and miss it when I wake

If ketamine could fix it I would take

A fistful every day

RIP to Smith inside his grave

Between the Bars I wish that I could stay

Imprisoned with the blame

An unresolved condition I should face

The foliage is different in the rain

The colors looks beautiful

Red and yellow rivers in the street

But to them it’s a funeral

There’s death in the deceit

I’m not worth it

You can’t fall back now

I’m imperfect

My failures could bury me under the ground

A long ride home

An October view

And I know you miss the mountainside

The foliage is out tonight

And dying to look beautiful for you

She said come out and look at the leaves on parade

They flooded the sky

But you know I can’t wait for the season to change

We’re just watching them die

I’m not worth it

You can’t fall back now

I’m imperfect

My failures could bury me under the ground

A long ride home

An October view

And I know you miss the mountainside

The foliage is out tonight

And dying to look beautiful for you

Hold it together

I’m fading away

I’m painted in shades of decay

I’m turning cold with the weather

There’s a light at the end

I brace for my final descent

Feels like October Forever

The colors expose

The end of a struggle that broke you down

I should have told you how

I’m over the terror

I’m part of it now
