Another day in these hollowed out shoes
I don't think I could walk another mile
Even if I wanted to
These shadows dance like puppets on the wall
And I'm so tired that I could cry

Another tear has fallen for the likes of you
You crushed my soul just because
You wanted to
Now my dreams and memories
All scream out your name
And I'm so tired but I tried
Oh but I tried

Ashes from the battle have fallen
Over my dejected broken my heart
And the smoke has turned my eyes
A deep cold dark blue
My shoes are tattered and have holes
My feet are so tender that they bleed
And I can't walk any more so here I am
Dying slowly on my knees
