Lyrics to No Relief
The sun was overhead
As I led you from the car
Our fingers lovely
But strange intermingled
We wandered through the woods
I noticed the horizon slowly dimming
While my assumptions
Grew more and more feeble
And now, it seems so clear
Above the treeline of the forest
I see my tower of babel erected
I hoped of reaching God
Or at least touching something holy
Like a wedding day, unanxious
Like a flagrant kiss, untainted

I walk you down this path
Only to watch you leave
There's no sense in looking back
The memory offers no relief

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

I feared of taking steps
That I would swiftly trace again
I guess we weren’t too sure where we were headed
The leaves had turned
Both a beginning and an end
Their colors withered, at rest where they landed
God, I wish I'd had known where we landed

I walk you down this path
Only to watch you leave
There's no sense in looking back
The memory offers no relief

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

I’m searching through the aftermath
I'm learning how to grieve
I'm okay knowing that you meant
A little more to me
I'm searching through the aftermath
I'm learning how to grieve
I'm okay knowing that you meant
A little more to me
I'm searching through the aftermath
I'm learning how to grieve
I’m okay knowing that you meant
A little more to me
I’m searching through the aftermath
I'm learning how to grieve
I’m okay knowing that you meant
A little more to me

I walk you down this path
Only to watch you leave
There's no sense in looking back
The memory offers no relief
