A careless leper, too comfortable in his own world to notice the older wounds have new infections with new intentions,
Darkness settled in behind me, tapped me on the shoulder, singing shivers to my spine from the corners of my mind,
"I've been wanting to remind you of everything you've left behind."
And wouldn't you, shouldn't you remember me?
Should you forget? - I haven't yet,
Remember when we almost stepped right off?
Between the two heavens; one above and one below
One last flight, all stars and city lights
One last goodbye, one last goodbye.
She's there when I'm alone, and she always seems to know the stories that'll take me back to where my comforts sleep,
Caress with velvet paws that hide her sharpened claws,
Along the walls that time has built high searching for the blemishes,
And I know she's breathing murder, that it is folly to endure her,
But there is sweetness in her whisper: "When you've had enough, I'll be waiting"
Wouldn't you, shouldn't you remember me?
Should you forget? - I haven't yet,
Remember when we almost stepped right off?
Between the two heavens; one above and one below
One last flight, all stars and city lights
One last goodbye, one last goodbye.
I've never known a life without her,
At every turn she is there.
Her comfort I despise, but there's a coward in me, fearing any changes for the trial,
Hopeless in a hideaway,
Familiar escape,
I've never known a life without her,
At every turn, she is there.
Yesterday is a siren, singing memories so inviting,
Sometimes reaping takes a lifetime, but I'm pushing on with living life,
Renewed in mind, I say goodbye to yesterday,
The siren, singing memories so inviting,
Sometimes reaping takes a lifetime, but I'm pushing on with the mind of Christ,
I say goodbye and watch her die.
