lyrics

Steady footsteps fall
Silence takes its toll
How to make amends
Who will be there in the end

They tell me to move on
They say that I have won
Their words they make no sense
But I guess in their defence

I would not try
Is this goodbye

Take me home
My clothes are tattered and worn
On this road where no one goes
I'm chasing my loves shadows

A time long ago, in a place far away
There was life in this dust, there was hope
Time heals all wounds. That's what they tell me
Does that mean that time has stopped

Oh it was a year ago

Will this be my end lost on the road?
It's hard to succumb to the thing I've become
When the dirt under my feet is
plated with gold

This time it's my road un quenched and unpaved
If I find a way out its my life I've saved
Take me home
My clothes are tattered and worn
On this road where no one goes
I'm Chasing my own shadow

A knock at the door
Just leave me alone
Get up off the floor
There's nobody home
It might by a friend
It might be a foe
It might someone
Who knows how to let go
I remember your face
Seems so clear
A memory I can't replace
You took them away

What do you have to tell me?
I've heard so much
You've done enough can't you see?
It's why I can't stay

Then he looked me in the eye
He said goodbye
And he said to me
His world fell apart
He said his whole life was wasted
With distasteful hate and ignorance
He said don't waste your life

I've walked through that doorway I've crawled from the sea
I've fought outcast soldiers In a burning dream

My life meant something to someone
And now it's all gone

I believed in my heart that Id never become
This lesser man a man so numb
That he can't see that this almost ended
Just how it begun

It's time to let them go

Not long ago my life meant so much to me
For for too long I wallowed in my agony
No! I will stand! I will make sure they're remembered
Just how I wanted myself to be

It's time to let them go
