The Things We Left Behind (And The Things That Slipped Away)

Nobody’s watching over us

No need to cover our faces

Don’t break the silence

Don’t make a fuss

We’ve got our own hiding places

I’d never let anything come between you and I

I’d rip apart the sky, until the stars align or worlds collide

I’d ride into the darkness, kill the ghosts that hang around your door

Until they never come back no more

The Sun is setting down on us

No one will pick up the traces

Like fading shadows

We turn to dust

Here nothing changes and nothing survives after us

I’d rip apart the sky

Oh, just for you and I

The darkness won’t swallow us

We’re still standing here where all the others lost

This is the path I chose, this is the road I travelled

I won’t let anybody stand in my way

One day

I’ll come back from the edge, my mind will not unravel

I’ll keep on fighting ‘til the end of my days

Until the Sun and the stars collide

Until we’re swept by the rising tide

Until we’re faded and cast aside

And time slips away, but we all must carry on

Yeah, we’ll keep marching on

We’ll find our echoes in the twilight

Where it will just be us

It was flesh and blood now it’s just blood and guts

This is the path I chose, this is the road I travelled

I won’t let anybody stand in my way

One day

I’ll come back from the edge, my mind will not unravel

I’ll keep on fighting ‘til the end of my days

Until the Sun and the stars collide

Until we’re swept by the rising tide

Until we’re faded and cast aside

And time slips away, but we all must carry on
