Abandon

There's no smoke without fire

But all I see is ash

Awaken to silence

And paralysing repetitions

I've let you down

And not for the first time

Light my path and I'll burn it all down

Once and for all

I see you speak but I can't hear a word

Sleep can't come soon enough

But it never does

A colourless view

Just one step too slow behind

I've let you down

As I always will

Light my path and I'll burn it all down

Once and for all

I see you speak but I can't hear a word

I just hear the steps that you walk

And when the wind blows

We're all lost

We're dust

And scattered across the earth

There is a void

Consuming me alive

Pulling me in

Crushing my will to survive

There is a voice

Inside me

A thousand whispers guiding

Telling me to leave

We are the suns and Moon

And every grain of sand is in my palm

And every star is in my mind

When I leave I'll leave nothing behind
