Leave It Behind

I don’t want to talk at all
Leave this once for me
It’s not how I want it to be
You are not who you were
You say that you have healed
It’s not how I want it to be

We covered a lot of ground
Spent so many years
All that effort just to bring us here
We faltered on our words
Resisted all the signs
Do we just leave it all behind

How did it come to this
This bitterness so real
Another swallowed appeal
Now it’s time I end this game
My hands are tied with fear
My conscience not quite clear

We covered a lot of ground
Spent so many years
All that effort just to bring us here
We faltered on our words
Resisted all the signs
Do we just leave it all behind

Can you see the fire dying
Can you see this and end this denying
Time is just moving on making what it will of us
Some of us still carry on sift and scavenge through dust
