Leaf from Scout by Forest Wilson

You, you are like a leaf
flying in the wind
I could never stop you

And I, I am like a fox
waiting in the grass
underneath the full moon

Got chills running down spine
Underneath the sky
when I felt a great truth

I cried like a little child
thinking of your love
and all the pain I caused you

And the tracks in the dirt show
how I'm running from my devils
And I, I just wanna let go,
like the hills changing all their colors

You, you are like the weeds
twisting through the floor
breaking up the static

And I, I am like a pond
bubbling in the dark
waiting for the magic

Got cracks running through my mouth
lightening for a tongue
striking through the softness

I'm lost where I grew up
tripping over stumps
mourning for the forest

x2And the tracks in the dirt show
how I'm running from my devils
And I, I just wanna let go,
like the hills changing all their colors
