Cedarwood Road (From Acoustic Sessions)

I was running down the road

The fear was all I knew

I was looking for a soul that’s real

Then I ran into you

And that cherry blossom tree

Was a gateway to the sun

And friendship, once it’s won

It’s won, it’s one

Northside

Just across the river to the Southside

That’s a long way here

All the green and all the gold

The hurt you hide

The joy you hold

The foolish pride

That gets you out the door

Up on Cedarwood Road

On Cedarwood Road

Sleepwalking down the road

Not waking from these dreams

‘Cause it’s never dead

It’s still my dead

It was a warzone in my teens

I’m still standing on that street

Still need an enemy

The worst ones I can’t see

You can, you can

Northside

Just across the river to the Southside

That’s a long way here

All the green and all the gold

The hurt you hide

And the joy you hold

The foolish pride

That sends you back for more

Up on Cedarwood Road

On Cedarwood Road

If the door is open it isn’t theft

You can’t return to where you’ve never left

Blossoms falling from a tree

They cover you and cover me

Symbols clashing, bibles smashing

Paint the world you need to see

Sometimes fear is the only place

That we can call our home

Cedarwood Road

And a heart that is broken

Is a heart that is open

And a heart that is broken

Is a heart that is open
