Little Marks

Please remind me of the view From the house down in the woods Where I could run out back, climb trees for hours straight Where the neighbors took me in Asked me all about my dreams Watching me pretend to be an astronaut We're so easily divided Have our future so decided Can't we have it any other way? We got locked out of our hearts Trapped our thoughts, and played our parts Since we've been running up and down these walls Oh, the clocks are telling me All the things I should have been What to make this short lift stay If I just want to leave I got pulled to way up north My mind moving back and forth I guess I take it with me where I go Little steps make little ways So how I sometimes feel ashamed Of all the secrets that we choose to keep I'll try and speak straight from the heart Carry dreams throughout the dark And may I never ever feel afraid I got close to all I need But somehow still feel incomplete I guess new goals will only go so far My shoes make little marks As it suddenly snows hard Walking on for sometime to come But I've been growing older With some weight upon these shoulders And with it my dreams start to fade
