Follow the Trees


 

Follow the trees

Through the breeze

Across the lake

Before you’re late.

 

Your pass the date

Except your fate.

Don’t cry in the light

Get up and fight.

 

The battle is lost

But you are boss.

Show who you are

And it will go far.

 

They will judge

You in the mud

But they will miss

Your kiss

 

Finally, you found

What’s kept you bound.

This war is won

But you have just begun.
