I did not expect
These feelings I would have for you
I cannot afford to feel
But something took me back
To where I was then
I don't fear what's coming
But I won't chase it

The smell of August flowers fills the air
Reminding me of teen-age disasters and despair

Can I walk this road?
Can I crack your code?
Why wear this mask?
Why take you back?
We protect ourselves
With facades just so
No one sees the real soul

Walking down the path
There's an obstacle ahead
I never wanted my life to be complacent
If the path ahead is clear
Then it's someone else's path
If the river doesn't bend you'll never see the ocean

The sounds of summer drift to me
Reminding me of innocence and safety

Can I walk this road?
Can I crack your code?
Why are you hiding from me?
Why are you hiding?
