Lyrics
Cruel Departure
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Do not welcome me back home
Your outstretched arms: An iron maiden
I'd be better off alone
We aren't the same
So we'll split up farther
Who is to blame
For our cruel departure?
I do not fear your fists
But your words still burn
What do we make of this
Of ourselves what was learned?
Go away, go away
Away from here
Go away, go away
Away from here
