Around the Ridge

by Dane Tedder and Michael Landolfi

Look, look.
Look and tell me what you see.
There, there.
Out there waiting for you and me.
Don't you see it, see it, rising up?
It's coming 'round the ridge for both of us.
Scared, scared.
You're just scared of what you'll see.

Where'd you go, where'd you go?

You better come back here

Don't you know that it isn't safe out there?

You better get back and don't complain

You know life is a drain, don't you know that it's pain?

I won't accept it any other way.

How, how

How did you end up here?

You, sir,

You're paralyzed by your own fear.

You were driven, driven, driven away

To somewhere that you could never stay.

But it's okay.

It's okay.

I can go, I can be what you need me to be

For 'bout a decade and a half I wasn't family.

I'm sorry that I didn't see

How after she died I was a banshee.

Forgive me.

Look, look.

Now you finally see.

Look, look. 

Now I finally see.
