Leaving Me Behind
Don't be discouraged by the chains around my wrists
I've walked this path for far too long not to know the risks
The saffron smoke around me swirls, the buildings crashing down
I hear no noise, my ears are deaf, there is only silence now
My heart beat skips, but I do not fear a world turned to dust
If you need space, please soar the skies, your heart is my must
Barefoot on the rubble I'll walk these jagged rocks
Don't listen to the cries of mine, I'm in a cage that's locked
I cannot reach the moon or stars, I cannot fly to you
No matter how hard I try, no matter what I do
