When The Kids Are Gone

Run through the hallway to escape who I am
If only I knew how or where to begin I would drop to my knees
Now you see how I plea
Hand to my heart on the edge of the bed

I am
Shaken and tormented by what's in my head
My tears flood every seed
Go on take what you need

Now I'm lost inside a moment
The hush before the omen decides
And I'm clutching to a feeling
The rush before the healing resigns
When the kids are gone
When the kids are gone

I know I asked if I will meet your demands
Steeples in darkness holding faith by the hand
I don't know what it means
When you say just believe

I can't hide in the shadows of you
Asleep in the pines the edge of our youth
I will drop to my knees
On belief killing street

Now I'm lost inside a moment
The hush before the omen
Decides
And I'm clutching to a feeling
The rush before the healing resigns
When the kids are gone
When the kids are gone

And you keep holding on
