Another loss Throw it on top of the pile Add up the cost, and cut all ties And I know it's on me But that don't make it any easier Another failure For all my grandest faults This may just leave the biggest scar This one is 8 years in the making I am seething Try to breathe as it comes crashing down Divorce the thoughts of this and Only remember me as a ghost Forget the remnants of my severed connection to you In spite of all of this I'll try to remember that it's all fleeting And all this time spent Has to amount to more than regret
2.
Sit and wait patiently I watch as the season fades With all this time to breathe My mind roams the shifting sands Time and time again I walk beside you The beginning and the end are all the same I will never bend but will you break me All of that depends on where and when this winter ends Still see your track marks branded into the snow Unpredictable icicles - you break and I fall No leaves to thank me for holding on Spring soon approaching yet so far gone
3.
Sever the ties Change the locks Remove any remnants of our stock End the affair End the charade Destroy the foundation that we made

Clever Game 04:45
Sometimes I think I'm better off asleep Contemplating all the ways I've grown While I'm drowning in the deep I fall short of what you need from me Complicating all the simple things A disturbance of the peace Mind beyond the clouds I remain in stasis In thin air I drown
5.
Wasted away 'til there's nothing left All of the streets are empty here Choke on the words within a breath All of my faults becoming clear But what difference does it make When there's nothing left to lose All the colours peel and fade Cold faint glow Taking for granted this autumn fog Watch it all wilt and wither A season of mist, and elusive thought Beckons me back into this river Although it is calm And though it flows so peacefully It is the lonliest distance This cold notion of Where I long to be Leaving behind all objectivity Taking for granted these chances that I've left behind No more denying the truth in my eyes
6.
On My Own 04:11
I'm leaving this world before I become something I hate I'm leaving behind a legacy that I did not create I was left alone No place left to go It just goes to show I'm better off on my own I'm drowning inside the emptiest feeling that I can find No more denying the truth of my crimes End the charade and make up for lost time Is this what's left in the world for me? A sickness that I must feed
