All I love and made - gone You are all I have - a stranger You have a certain air Why elect me as the conduit to grief? Have I not suffered enough? You’re just adding to the load I’d believe the hope around me If it wasn’t me you chose Save me - such an empty term Forsake me - no one ever learns Redeem me - how is that deserved? Erase me - from this haggard earth It’s the reason I’m searching for It’s the reason that I was born It’s the reason I can’t ignore I’ve been waiting forever more Tell me when and I’ll go with you Say you promise and I will too Take me somewhere I can be free Somewhere I don’t even know me Let’s start anew Let’s build on the darkness and silence Save me - such an empty term Forsake me - no one ever learns Redeem me - how is that deserved? Erase me - from this haggard earth Let’s start anew Let’s build on the darkness and silence
