Down an August Path - Felt

Waiting by a bridge

That leads you to a stone

That says your mother died

Your mother died

Kneeling by her cross

The words they come to life

You open up inside

And start to cry

Shadows that are falling

Are merely angels calling

Shadows in the evening

Say something’s got to give

The way you live

This cloud of darkness it must lift

You can’t be so sure

Assertiviness never got you anywhere

Not anywhere

So i say to you

Be honest and be loyal

See what faith can do What faith can do Shadows that are falling

Are merely angels calling

Shadows in the evening

Say something’s got to give

The way you live

This cloud of darkness it must lift

You are on your own

You’re father’s never there

He leaves you all alone

You’re on your own

So you come to town

You shelter behind stories

Of your own design

They’re all in your mind

When you saw me coming

You always started running

Stones hurled from afar

They always reach their mark

They never miss

They always, always

Leave a scar

Down an august path

The light is fading trees are shading

You from view

I can’t see you

When will you learn

That noone is against you

We’re all on your side

Your tide will return

Shadows that are falling

Are merely angels calling

Shadows in the evening

Say something’s got to give

The way you live

This cloud of darkness it must lift
