Everybody knew what was coming
For a moment it was written in the stars
As you held your breath
Your courage intact
We were waiting for a storm to pass
When all the roads converge in one direction
There was nothing we could do or say
Set the woods on fire
Watch it all burn down
So golden and brilliant and gone
Still running from a hopeless situation
We were chosen by the dreams we threw away
We cast them all aside
Expecting to fall
So vulnerable and fearful and small
And you were so alone in that moment
So susceptible and in need of some help
Suddenly you saw
What you had to do
The clouds were heavy but you knew you were not done
Your heart was heavy but you chose not to run
