lyrics

The morning was silent,
unlike any other
Nothing was moving
save the tops of the trees
Then out from a clearing
a young deer came running
Why oh why, did my heart stop today?


So much beauty around me,
still I found anger
Lie upon lie,
hate upon hate
I opened my coat
to look on the inside
Why oh why, did my heart stop today?


I want to love,
but today I just hate you
And so I tell you
it’s time we both walked away
I followed my head
but it brought me back to you
why oh why, did heart stop today?
