Lyrics
And on the furthest day when you lay down Discard your disarray and your rusted crown And face the wretched image of you and I No trust in what you say, you are a dead poison seed Stronger when you are away, you have nothing that I need The rhyme has settled in the ghost of a sigh Nothing now remains, now you will leave me be Sunrise into the moonlight A broken body lies in wait Your prize won you the stark night And you made peace with your fate Blind eyes sensitive only to white light Reacting just a bit too late Preying on insecurity, a design of your schemes A true believer of purity must tend to what it means Or allow its gospel to turn into a lie You forsake everything you feel in favor of despair Immune and blind to everything that is real in your secret lair And cast away the captive heart that was thine And you will go and leave me be Winter in your soul, building a wasteland And you tread a thin ice 'neath your feet Sneering, and everyone you would shun Collecting flowers to your wreath Lifeline, a river cuts deep in your cold hand It is changing when you try to breathe Leave it all behind you, there is comfort in giving up A seed in a barren soil might curl up into a coil Flourish into something new Give back what you thought was "you" And give way to all that is new Leave it all behind you...
