Abandon Lyrics


Always healing, never healed

overflowing, never filled

I can remember sharp and clear

right here is the place

where we were torn apart

Part of me is buried there

a severed limb

that nobody else can see

a fire that burns

but no one else can feel

a scream you'll never hear

a fear you'll never know

And it was me

who chose this bitter path beside you

wherever it might go

but it was you

who climbed the mountain while I watched

you're vanishing right now

vanishing

How can I survive?

if only I had stayed

in perfect silence

if only I could find

silence somewhere

far away from the world

I'll open my heart up

let the gods come in

take pure joy in a new life

here as a marionette

Sometimes I embrace it

freedom of a sort

frozen in a dance

that's been decided from the start

But oh, I said I would take part

the last choice I ever had

you're climbing up so high

with such abandon

The greatest fool in all the world

is not the one who follows blind

but the one who found truth

and chose with open eyes

to leave it all behind

Part of me is buried there

it's never coming back

only empty air

where can you have gone?

Will you turn now,

turn away and abandon

everything and run?

I was never ready

it's not an answer but I know

that it's the truth

and yet I come

The sun is at my back
