	Story Behind the Song ryann anderson, guitar;ched stanisic and kevin lytle, keybaords; jeff pell, drums Lyrics Sometimes it’s like a…wind that spills the scattered leaves around you. Despite the chill it holds you captive, calling for you. Sometimes it’s like a…vague mist of unsensible. A hint that plans of growth unroll in meaningful coincidence. Step shy of threat to meet it walking toward you when you’d Run from danger. Weight the silence. If you talk to God he’ll tell you that he had a happy childhood. If you think back you’ll remember that to kids life is cartoons. Sometimes my eyes can snap like pictures – All I love twists thin on paper. Streetlights, trees, and houses spun in colors from the moon. Sometimes I think…a free race cannot enter out of slaves. Stone’s throw nations winched between the coin purse and the grave. Wrinkled faces on wrinkled notes count more than life to Frightened people. Language is a paint wheel dialing answers up in shades. Sometimes I think…that no one walked the earth before I came. Only stories told by silhouettes who can’t have felt the same. History makes myth of dying – tallies too big to believe in numbers. Each breath becomes a choice of what to spend and what to save. Grasshopper excess or ant frugality? If I knew what I might miss it might empower me To better deal with reality. Sometimes it’s like a…hint that chills the scattered wind around you. Once captive growth now loose and calling, calling out your name. Sometimes I find…each moon-scattered plan invincible. Shy pastel cartoons of the child who came before me Weight the silence.
