When you get down to the lake are you so surprised
Recollecting Sunday drives and weary water eyes
In the evening talking of how they’re often discarded
When they reflect the November Sky
The November Sky is clear and bright but quickly turning
Autumn’s gone, she left her bags by the door this morning
We woke greeted by the fire’s smoke
As the embers danced and died celebrating without a sound
As for me, I am distracted and tired
As for me, I am dead leaves
I am paler, than the freshly fallen ground
Is scorched and broken
We are running on planes
We are running, our landscapes are scattered and open
And when you get down to the lake when you meet the water
Are you so surprised that it’s frozen
I know I am
I know I am older
Will we make it over?
Will we make it over?
