In my mind it's all the way things were I remember how the family heard They told them everything in the house had burned And all that's left will slowly fade to the earth In my mind it's all the way things were I remember how the family heard And every night the fearful dreams emerge She takes her shelter like a flightless bird A life worth living? "I don't know" A wolf gone hiding in the snow A love worth killing just to show Just what it is to let it go Just what it is to let him go In my mind it's all the way things were I remember how the family heard They told them everything in the house had burned And all that's left will slowly fade to the earth She lay down with him there for weeks She heard his body start to creak And when he turned to her to speak That's when he knew his time had peaked That's when he knew their time had peaked In my mind it's all the way things were I remember how the family heard They told them everything in the house had burned And all that's left will slowly fade to the earth In my mind it's all the way things were I remember how the family heard And every night the fearful dreams emerge She takes her shelter like a flightless bird
