The sun comes up over the hillside
Because it's got no place to go
You asked me where to I was headed
I turned and searched and said, I don't know
The flowers spiral through the pavement
Always reaching towards the clouds
Do you hear the children playing
All you'll have to do is turn around
You close your eyes just to surrender
You can't do this on your own
When they leave you there to die again
You know that you will make it home alone
The heat it beats upon your shoulders
It always tries to tear you down
Your layers cover up security
So take them off and throw them to the ground
Her curls swirl through your fingers
The ones you wished would tie you down
She lifts the weight from off your shoulders
Puts you high beyond the clouds
