[Verse 1] Look me in the eye, not everything will be alright. When we said goodbye, got out of hand and out of sight. Don't come crawling back, if you can't muster one more fight. Go walk among the thistle, and the weeds. [Bridge] It's been a long, and fateful trip. Just went along, to get a grip. We wet our tongues, with serenade. Our songs we sung, We had it made. [Chorus] And we lived among, the people and the trees. We travelled with, the bison and the bees. The past was said and done, but all was well and fun. And I've learned from all, the loneliness I've seen. [Verse 2] Our liberty was crushed, by all the promises we made. Watching bridges burn, and the iron melt away. You can con the pool, but the river’s overrun. Don't drown among, the currents and the flood. [Bridge] We knew the cold, unbearing breeze. We lost the map, so that we'd freeze. Spoiled the wine, to ring the bell. The night was long, and cold as hell. [Verse 3] Now that years have passed, and we've found our way is gone. Nothin's overcast, now that our hearts are overdrawn. Raise a silent toast, to the past that set us free. We'll walk among, the flowers and the leaves. [Chorus] And we lived among, the people and the trees. We travelled with, the bison and the bees. The past was said and done, but all was well and fun. And I've learned from all, the loneliness I've seen. And we lived among, the people and the trees. We travelled with, the bison and the bees. The past was said and done, but all was well and fun. And I've learned from all, the loneliness I've seen. [Outro] Don't walk among the thistles and the weeds...
