Like the leaves that fall off a tree I know that love has left me And I can give in to being estranged As the branches wilt and the colors change And the fish that wash up on shore Who won't be swim in the sea anymore Are like those thousands of wasted days Upon the million grains of sand And like the leaves that pile to decay These little d**hs happen every day Maybe our love was just a cliché And not unique because it happened to me Let my life blow away in the wind Carry my old dreams far from me I'll just sit alone and pa** the time I'm better off, it was too much A little d**h from every touch I had to run, I had to leave I'm dead inside but I can breathe I see now that it was me I've lost my love and my family But let the trees and the sea feel contrite Convince myself that I'm alright Better to smile and take the blame Than to hold on to the truth and pain I don't want love if it will hurt me again (Chorus x2) I'm better off, it was too much A little d**h from every touch I had to run, I had to leave I'm dead inside but I can breathe (x3) Leaves they fall then come back Their colors fade, turn to black (?) just to love Just give up and let the memory fade
