Vanishing Note

Josh Woodward · The Shade from Our Trees

I was a vanishing note
In the song, that you wrote
Your harmony
Grew far from me and faded

I was the pen to your sword
I completed the chord
You cut me out
I tried to shout, but my voice went

Ooooooh

Why did you edit me out?
Was I playing too loud
Was I off key?
Or was I just repeating?

You could have asked me to change
This was your arrangement
But there wasn't space
So you erased me, now I go

Ooooooh

If there's no room for me
In your doomed symphony
I'll write my own
I'll find a tone to match with mine
