Distraction

The elms are high round here
The water's clear, the air is pure
Is this the life you hungered for?

But oh you waver so
The youthful ways of city nights
Could tempt you back without a fight

'Cause life is never enough
Gone is the boy who never said much

Tonight, there's always tonight
Where roads won't ever divide

We lock our lives up tight and tell ourselves
We'll be ok, that soon our trials will slip away

But times are turning bad
The war has made it to our shores
The wolf is there outside the door

And life is getting too much, oh
For the heart that's journeyed enough

Tonight, there's always tonight
Where roads won't ever divide
Tonight, tonight

So drag your fears below the water
And drown the memories you saved

Distraction, distraction
