The body descends, I should have let it The strongest love I've felt in my life She said "I was born into this life to suffer And suffer I will" But if you had to do it all again Without knowing you'd make it through Do you think you'd make it? No, I don't think I would My heart is the leaves My body the trees And it's Halloween Two thousand eight I'm strung out again My body descends
And I'm having this dream Every night A room with a view A room with some light A stoic front porch Some mountains outside I am what I'm not My problems are gods When the body descends We both sit and watch And the strongest love I've felt in my life Rises up from the dark To pull me aside And across the room And out in the hall And outside my house And out in the yard
