lyrics

I walk through the doorway, Rushing to my home
The darkness surrounds, Completely alone

What has become, Which wrenching mistake
My breath turns to ice, With every gasp I take

My passions turned to stone, My light was put out long ago
There goes the flash, I hear the crash
The breaking of my soul

I cannot be forgotten, Like a lesser man would
Or am I the lesser man, Cause great ones would have stood

What has happened to us,How can we raise this soul
When we are two shattered pieces,Scattered on the floor

Oh the legend of me
Severed from the dreams
Of the man I could have been

Can you hear the crashing of the
Can you see the light burning through
I walk to the window frame I
Pull the blinds, to my demise

I run to the doorway, Rushing to my street
People surround, Our drawn eyes meet

The flames burn high, The blood runs cold
And onto the pavement, Tearing holes in my soul

The man crawls away, The man that took my life today
I see him stand, My heart demands
A debt to be payed

And I just stare, there's no real cost
A person can't make up for the two I just lost

Now everything's changed
What I yearned for seems so strange
Just a few minutes ago
I was a dog in a cage

Oh the legend of me
Severed by the
Life that could have been
And I see, the man scream)

It's not my fault that they died

He shoves me, mumbling

That bitched swerved I front of me
I don't care what you you say
Or how you say it
I'm leaving now I'm not coming back

This isn't over
