It hurts you now to listen

You say you're on a mission

Dealing with the pain inside

But all you seem to do is cry



Hands shaking dropping your defenses

Now you're taking your chances



Cause every night, and every day

I see you fall down on your knees

It doesn't matter what I say

You'll do what you do...

In the forest for the trees.



There's a halt on conversation

You tell me that you're stayin'

Another bright day has gone by

But it's bigger than the big blue sky



So tired of making excuses

Gotta stop, sitting on fences



Cause every night, and every day

I see you fall down on your knees

It doesn't matter what I say

You'll do what you do...

In the forest for the trees.



You're craving physical attention

Make or break for a new seduction

You're left here picking up the pieces

But only truth can set you free



Cause every night, and every day

I see you fall down on your knees

It doesn't matter what I say

You'll do what you do...

In the forest for the trees.
