From out of these trees

The trees offered safety, protection
Did you need that, were you scared?
Were you alone or with another?
What was it like, in that dark safe place?

I woke up the other night thinking of you
Not even knowing you, how's that for power
After all these years wondering about you
What was it like, in that dark safe place?

Do you remember it; think about it often?
Is it even a concern?
Do you wake up thinking of others?
What is it like, in your dark safe place?

Football chants clearly in my mind
I remember the crowds, the darkness
Shadows moving from tree to tree
What is it like, in your dark safe place?

I remember him falling,
Straight back,
I can't remember him speaking
Drifting away, to a dark strange place

This is about you though
Is it vivid or clear?
Do you even remember?
What is it like in your dark, dark place?
