That's what it takes to make a man feel so small
Love him then leave him if you want him to fall
He'll know what he's missing, and missing most of all

You can take the pain, accept it for now
Later you'll realize how much you found
When she took out her knife and you dropped to the ground

All was well. All was fine. You didn't have to go out and erase my mind
No I'm not fine. To tell you the truth I'm caught in a net like a fish in the sea only drowning because I have no gills to breathe

Fifteen days of running I've done to hide myself from everyone
Fifteen nights of sleeping alone having no one to hold in the dark and the cold

I feel stuck in the snow locked in the white
Surrounded by silence not even light
You'd understand, the dark things we fight

And I sit here and play my lonely guitar
Music's the one thing to keep me warm
It takes me far me and my songs we are never apart

All was well. All was fine. You didn't have to go out and kill me like swine
No I'm not fine. To tell you the truth I'm about to get shot by the poacher's big gun though I'm crying because, my legs are so worn and I cannot I cannot run

Fifteen days of running I've done to hide myself from everyone
Fifteen nights of sleeping alone having no one to hold in the dark and the cold

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Fifteen days of running I've done to hide myself from everyone
Fifteen nights of sleeping alone having no one to hold in the dark and the cold

Fifteen months of loving a friend without an end until you let go of my hand
