“And she walked away in silence,
It's strange, how you never know,
But we'd both gotten what we'd asked for,
Such a long, long time ago.”

“I'm going down
Follow if you want
I won't just hang around
Like you'll show me where to go
I'm already out
Of foolproof ideas
So don't ask me how
To get started
It's all uncharted”

Sara Bareilles (1979) American pop rock singer-songwriter and pianist
