Seeking justice in their eyes
I got lost in all the lies
I had hoped a better end
Now I can’t keep the pretense
I could never take a step towards my own goals
Where my road was gonna end I really don’t know
Sense the misery
It’s the only thing I see
The trenches were never enough to cover me
When I try to peak my head they think I’m crazy
All I wanted
Was to find a place to be but now
I leave here unwanted
Disappearing like an echo
Forgotten by those I let go
I leave traces of a time
When I had some space left to grow
I passed by like an echo
Pieces together
Don’t end up a whole
What was broken once can’t form a perfect soul
I always feared the empty
But the most empty there was me
It was too much
I could never take a step towards my own goals
Where my road was gonna end I really don’t know
Sense the misery
It’s the only thing I see now
I leave here unwanted
Disappearing like an echo
Forgotten by those I let go
I leave traces of a time
When I had some space left to grow
I passed by like an echo
I leave here unwanted
Forgotten by those I let go
I passed by like an echo
