Carbon And Leaves

lyrics

CARBON AND LEAVES
I've got something to say to your heart
So shut up and listen or this won't be your last shot
You may be thinking that you've won this war
But I know you'll be coming for more

You can feel the soles that are under your feet
I'll feel the grass this is under my toes
You can wear the things to protect you from hurt
And I'll keep on feeling until I toughen my skin
I can build you things that you've never seen
And you won't take me places that you've never been
When everything's for certain get ready for a mess
You forgot to plan to be a little careless

I'll shake off the dust that now covers my skin
You can pull some strings to get under my clothes
I'll build up the walls and you'll be let in
It's not right but I feel alive

Cause with all you've been building up
I swear it's coming down
I hope you're alone
I know you're with somebody else
I'll take the things that you've made me
Put them under some rocks
I hope the stream covers them
With some carbon and leaves

I tend to get a little carried away
Cause a little too much seems the standard these days
If we don't stop there's no need to recover
I don't need your warnings I don't want to live forever

I want to shake you off but you're under my skin
So I'll let someone else get under my clothes
I'll build up the walls and you'll be let in
It's not right but I feel alive

It'll never be the same
It's best you write it down
Cause it's better said without a sound

She Roars Fredericton, New Brunswick

She Roars is a pop rock band that fuses infective, energizing pop melodies with the raw power of crowd pulsing punk rock to lead create a sound that is equally daring in its approach as it is palatable to the mainstream public.
