Remnants Of Yesterday

The night falls as if slain by the sun
Flares once then fades away
Keeping me chained
To these intrusive memories
Yet this downward spiral
Just gaining speed.

Finding me here time after time
You reach out and touch my soul.

Behind the tears
Dwells a craving to escape
The emptiness that i now own
Yet do I dare to take the leap
And try my new wings
Gazing by the edge alone.

A new day breaks into the unknown
Frozen still, looking like a painting
Dusty and faded
Colors peeling off the frames
Like I belong in the scenery.

Behind the tears
Dwells a craving to escape
The emptiness that I now own
Yet do I dare to take the leap
And try my new wings
Gazing by the edge alone.

Belief remains, remnants of yesterday
Belief is everything I have.

Behind the tears
Dwells a craving to escape
The emptiness that I now own
Yet do I dare to take the leap
And try my new wings
Gazing by the edge alone.
