In this fading image

we'll carve our destiny

sometimes life is a cruel friend

sometimes that's what we need



I'll hold my eyes when the light comes in

I'll sell my silence for a song

now I won't die if you walk away

but I may not live



Now I watch as the rain comes down

to purify this pain

when mountains crumble and stars collide

I am what remains



There are lessons that sadness

can only teach

there are things that we must learn

now I won't die if you walk away

but I may not live
