Remaining Memory
Remaining Memory
Here I am right here in front of me
I'm here again so now I can see
What I've been living a daydream
Falling apart at it's weakest seam
Lost in the dream of you and me
Imagining all that we can truly be
At last though it just remains a memory
Now I'm confused what's friend and enemy
But here we are at the end of the final line
No longer can we lie and pretend it's all fine
I won't let this be the end of me not this time
Why is it all the victims pay for the others crime
No more tears now will you bleed from my eyes
No more will I have to take all your familiar lies
I may have been knocked to the ground
But I'll stand back up for another round
As long as I have something to fight for
To remain silent and still I do not anymore
All of me has been bloody and bruised
I'm tired and enraged of being so used
By my limbs you push and pull me still
The desire and urge inside of me to kill
Far deep within it's building too high once again
With all my soul I have to stop it before it can begin
