Behind

Our memories rest Oh, fairytales of lies From our history I burn down the pages Of your face and words sketched on paper My tears already corroded The bridges we once built Now laying as stones to the ground Broken, ruined, lost Pathways to a new world To the promising land That we will never reach The bound once shared You dragged through the dirt Feelings and words Forgot under dust No longer matter No longer hurt Watch me bury This past Without a blink Without a glance back Lock down these ashes So they can never be revived Watch me fade away From your sight Spread my wings And turn my back Oh, watch me leave you… Behind
