Left, forsaken in your wake,
The cold forlorning shadow of regret,
To reflect upon all my foolish mistakes
And contemplate those I make still yet.
Do I still believe in your lies?
Cynicall maniac tearing me apart,
Do I still let the blue in your eyes
Conceal the demons in your heart?
You'd leave me broken if I were weak,
Upon broken knees to crawl and plea.
You'd steal from me the words I'd speak,
And shrug them off as you abandon me.
But at last I can turn away from this place,
Set fire to all I thought we ever were
And walk away with not a tear upon my face.
Now, I refuse to bend, I will not defer.
Your hatred was never strong enough after all,
You could never walk away no matter how you tried-
But I refused to let myself stumble and fall,
So I turned, forgot all the tears I had cried.
I picked up what was left of my wasted pride,
Polluted memories thrown away with yesterday.
Learn again, fortify myself inside
And never, from this new path, turn back away.
The cold forlorning shadow of regret,
To reflect upon all my foolish mistakes
And contemplate those I make still yet.
Do I still believe in your lies?
Cynicall maniac tearing me apart,
Do I still let the blue in your eyes
Conceal the demons in your heart?
You'd leave me broken if I were weak,
Upon broken knees to crawl and plea.
You'd steal from me the words I'd speak,
And shrug them off as you abandon me.
But at last I can turn away from this place,
Set fire to all I thought we ever were
And walk away with not a tear upon my face.
Now, I refuse to bend, I will not defer.
Your hatred was never strong enough after all,
You could never walk away no matter how you tried-
But I refused to let myself stumble and fall,
So I turned, forgot all the tears I had cried.
I picked up what was left of my wasted pride,
Polluted memories thrown away with yesterday.
Learn again, fortify myself inside
And never, from this new path, turn back away.
