Under Fire

Looking out the window, it's beautiful out there
Give me reasons to remember
The summer trees are stripped and almost bare
It's late September
Come the sun to kiss it better
Thank god for understanding

It seemed that we were under you
It looked like you were under fire
I know the love was never true
The moment we refused to fight
It seemed that I was never right
Walking another sleepless dream
And now everything I leave behind
I leave
For you

Look into the mirror, what am I?
A frightened creature, locked inside
My Mother's hair, my Father's eyes
Memories time rearranged for you
As everything changed for you
Did they make it better?
Thank god for understanding

It seemed that we were under you
It looked like you were under fire
It seemed the love was never true
The moment we refused to fight
I know that I was never right
Walking another sleepless dream
And everything I leave behind
I leave
For you
