The world is catching up behind you
She's soft and fast on your heels
The wind picks up her voice and carries it across your ear
Asking “Why all this fear?”
Your feet try to loose her in the wood
You turn your stiff, stubborn neck saying
“Keep away. You've brought me only grey
You lead my brother's life away
And to this day, my mother can't find her way”
The world slowed down for a minute
Crying hard for your pains
But she knows her role - she's up in haste
Find's you quick, your head in your hands
Sitting by the old evergreen
“You and me and the evergreen
He's old and wise, says I am your prize
We're sorry for you tears my love
But I'm all yours - me and my hard, hard ways”
