Soft,
weary
exhale)
Oh,
the
road
comes
to
an
end
today
it
had
to
happen,
didn't
it?
I
gave
you
the
best
of
my
garden
I
watered
the
roots
'til
my
hands
grew
cold
But
you
were
always
looking
at
the
horizon
For
a
story
that
was
never
mine
to
hold
I
gave
my
all,
I
laid
it
on
the
floor
But
for
you,
it
was
never
enough,
no
more
So
I
choose
peace,
I’
m
walking
away
Leaving
the
shadows
of
yesterday
I
hope
you
find
whatever
you
needed
to
see
Now
that
you’
re
finally
being
real
with
me
I
wish
you
well,
I
wish
you
light
Even
if
I’
m
weeping
in
the
dead
of
night
These
lessons
are
sharp,
they
cut
like
a
blade
But
I
needed
the
fire
to
see
how
I’
m
made
You
pretended
so
well,
a
mask
on
your
face
Searching
for
love
in
a
hollowed-out
space
God
knows
I
didn't
want
this
for
our
children
But
some
battles,
my
dear,
are
beyond
our
control
So
I
choose
peace,
I’
m
walking
away
Leaving
the
shadows
of
yesterday
I
hope
you
find
whatever
you
needed
to
see
Now
that
you’
re
finally
being
real
with
me
I
wish
you
well,
I
wish
you
light
Even
if
I’
m
weeping
in
the
dead
of
night
It’
s
painful,
yeah,
the
truth
leaves
a
sting
But
peace
is
a
song
that
I’
m
learning
to
sing
No
more
games,
no
more
pretending
to
be
Just
an
empty
shell
of
the
man
you
showed
me
So
I
choose
peace,
I’
m
walking
away
Leaving
the
shadows
of
yesterday
I
hope
you
find
whatever
you
needed
to
see
Now
that
you’
re
finally
being
real
with
me
I
wish
you
well,
I
wish
you
light
Even
if
I’
m
weeping
in
the
dead
of
night
I
wish
you
well, (
Guitar
melody
fades)
No
more
wahala,
just
peace (
Soft,
lingering
marimba
note)
Final
lesson
learned.
Yeah.
