Little Marks

Please remind me of the view
 From the house down in the woods
 Where I could run out back, climb trees for hours straight
 Where the neighbors took me in
 Asked me all about my dreams
 Watching me pretend to be an astronaut
 We're so easily divided
 Have our future so decided
 Can't we have it any other way?
 We got locked out of our hearts
 Trapped our thoughts, and played our parts
 Since we've been running up and down these walls
 Oh, the clocks are telling me
 All the things I should have been
 What to make this short lift stay
 If I just want to leave
 I got pulled to way up north
 My mind moving back and forth
 I guess I take it with me where I go
 Little steps make little ways
 So how I sometimes feel ashamed
 Of all the secrets that we choose to keep
 ♪
 I'll try and speak straight from the heart
 Carry dreams throughout the dark
 And may I never ever feel afraid
 I got close to all I need
 But somehow still feel incomplete
 I guess new goals will only go so far
 My shoes make little marks
 As it suddenly snows hard
 Walking on for sometime to come
 But I've been growing older
 With some weight upon these shoulders
 And with it my dreams start to fade
