Torn To Tattered

Carbon Leaf

In a classroom somewhere alone

Looking at the window scene

Tune out the tutor in me

Sun is going down through the line of trees

I day dream



And in my head I walk along

All the paths we have been on

There is a chance to bridge the line

Between two points ruptured in time

You lived your life like nothing else mattered

And now you're torn, torn to tattered



Chorus:

And I don't need any apology

And you know I don't need any apology

And it's a long walk away

Oh, it's a long walk away

Torn, tattered. torn...



Certain things make me feel

Like it was when we could steal

The magic of moments real

Revisit. remember. reunion. re-ember

The white smell of burning leaves

Walk along...

You walk the path like Charlie Brown

You're full of hope, but with your head down

And you only have one eye to see

The other's closed, and too scared to peak

And silence of the heart can leave you shattered

And now you're torn, torn to tattered



Chorus



Through the line of trees I dream

of only good remembering

I think of you. was it...

Was it ever so bad my friend? And what was...

What was ever so bad my friend?

And in my head I walk along,

All of the paths we should be on

The sun is down, enjoyed the dream

I'm full of hope, that you think of me

I think of you and how much you mattered

When I'm torn, torn to tattered



Chorus
