Leave no trace. Words I'll never forget Spending my time raising babies that are Not my own I remember the words of my mother Leave no trace I keep hearing it As I pick up endless piles of dolls And legos In someone else's home Leave no trace Leave no trace The repetition of those words never ceases in my head Trying to unwind myself from This entanglement of what used to be love Leave no trace Memories I have to bury deep enough to forget the surprise She found the loophole in the game of love And I found my own way out Leave no trace
