You never looked over your shoulder dear, and that autumn won’t, once more, be found
I step back now that I am older dear, and doubts I had start to compound
I took inspiration but was so inclined, to color the pane streaming light from behind
And the truth smashed my stain glass and though I pine, I see the shade was mine
They walk around naked in paradise, deluded in young love’s pursuit
The serpent gave blind eve some good advice, these suitors should all eat the fruit
You’re vindicated by some broken hearts. Why couldn’t they see they were doomed from the start?
The apples they haul make a heavy cart- she’s not with you, depart
Rise from the rubble around you, friend, rebuild on a far away plot
Don’t chase after that which destroyed you, friend, just salvage the pieces you’ve got
The neighbors won’t listen when you try to warn about the temptation that will leave them torn
That house was no home, all the faces wore, expressions quite forlorn
Say what you want to me, say it
Say what you want to me, I’m listening
Say what you want to me
I’ll give you all that you are shouting here
But it doesn’t absolve you of what would appear
To be taking advantage of one man’s fear
Another to endear
