October
Bells and Robes Lyrics

So you showed me around your town
You took me on a tour of places you know well

To hell again and back
We've had ups and downs in our relationship

Our love has served to alienate
Our romantic involvement has caused you to lose touch with your friends

All the friends you depend on
You rely heavily on the support of your friends

I know it might seem odd
I'm aware that what I'm about to say may not make sense

Cause your not the only one
I can relate to your experience

I remember myself as a lonely child
I too have felt alone in my life

So I was
I understand the feeling of isolation

And you've got me wrong
You misunderstand what I'm trying to say

(Ground your sense of worth
Lower your expectations

Til the spark of morning burns
Until you realize the harsh reality of your situation

And all those searching eyes
People who are looking for answers

Could scold your tender mind)
Might be judgmental and hurt your feelings

Remember what they say
Don't forget the advice people give

There's no shortcut to a dream
You have to work hard to achieve your goals

It's all blood and sweat
Success comes with sacrifice

And life is what you manage in between
You have to make the most of every moment

But what you don't know
There are things you're unaware of

Is you're too young and eager to love
You're inexperienced and naive when it comes to relationships

Seething eyes
Intense emotions

So you're about to get into
You're on the verge of getting involved in something

The ditch that you opened up
The problem that you yourself created

So the stars aligned
Everything came together perfectly

And leave you behind
You missed out on an opportunity

You wanna sow it up
You want to fix the situation

Here come the light
A new opportunity presents itself

Of an autumn moon
A metaphor for a new beginning

Sister you know enough
You have enough knowledge and experience to handle this

But for now just let it go
Don't worry about it for the time being

Don't run, don't rush
Be patient and take your time

Just flow
Let things happen naturally

Through the give and take you had to learn
You learned through trial and error

How to cross the coals and not get burned
How to navigate difficult situations without getting hurt

But you're really just a little girl
You're young and inexperienced

Playing in the park until the sun goes down
Enjoying life without a care in the world

Sometime you want to rise
Sometimes you aspire to greatness

One did it's our desire
We all want to achieve success

No doubt you think you braided your own hair
You believe you achieved success on your own

So you're all grown up
You feel mature and experienced

Should you want to cross the line
If you decide to take a risk

Which way do you want to fly?
Which direction do you want to take?

Pretend that love could help you find your way
Believing that love will guide you is naive

But you got me wrong
You misunderstand my intentions
