lyrics

watch the faces in the trees smile at me
expressions in the leaves bring me to my knees
watch the faces in the leaves show signs of relief
suttle movement embark but keep it brief

handshakes and a wink of extended eye
black fancy dress alone sprouted cold
mile after mile cut in the fold
tough pill to swallow, this empty mold
stories told, landscape sold, bold movements all implode

calmness brings me to my knees
count down by threes
calmness brings me to my knees
count down by threes

rolling hills
barriers contain the kill
search aimlessly to replace your thrill
mile after mile cut in the fold
tough pill to swallow, this empty mold
stories told, landscape sold, bold movements all implode

calmness brings me to my knees
count down by threes
calmness brings me to my knees
count down by threes

can this calmness set you at ease
cause for alarm eliminate the things to can't see
can this calmness set you at ease
cause for alarm while you counts down by threes

calmness brings me to my knees
count down by threes
calmness brings me to my knees
count down by threes
