we can run fast  
run forever 
until we lose ourselves 
our spirit 
but it doesn't matter 

as we sit in the grass 
and breathe in 
as the air grows sweet 

When I am no longer 
The same as I once was 
And you have equally changed 

All these memories and moments 
That I once believed 
Would last 
Forever 

I've been to the desert 
Following something 
I cannot blame

See the ghosts by the water 
The horses in the rain 
The man lying by the river 
Hearing god call his name

If you give her salvation 
She will rest a long time 
She will seek in you 
What you can never find 

If you give her your soul 
She will be true 
She will live and love 

Let me go back to the mountains 
Back to the trees 
Back to the forest who once mothered me 

When all we have is spent 

What will we have left? 


Like an animal that runs through the forest 

Searching for the last of its kind to go
