Pete Davis beneath the ground

Lately, everything we've tried to say
Has come out wrong, I know
Maybe I've forgotten some important thing
And maybe we'll never see
The timber sulks and strains every day
Grow up straight and carry the way
The light upon your face, the glimmer in your eyes
It takes it all away so leaving here
A darkened void, a stranger's room
And now what have we done?
And now there is no turning back
And now what do your sweaty hands do
Now that it's gone and dropped everything
You've held on too?
Tall through sleet and slated decay
Somber respite, seconds to flay
Eagerly hushed, though you'd been speaking
Desperate to retain what you said and
There's no use in trying
To have it back, it's left you now for good
There's no use in trying
To have it back, you've lost it all, I know
(Oh please, oh please, can someone hear me,
Please, oh please, I'm underneath)
And we only go, as far as the trails go
(Did you hear the wind say everything will be okay from here?)
The tracks led us here, and then they just disappear
