To others the pain was obvious

The colours of a shame a bruise unjust

Abuse of trust can't be wiped



I can't remember why

I chose to say goodbye

I'm terrified of what I might have severed



I tried to forget the drowning truth

Lashing inside my sea of youth

Life seemed a fair sacrifice for peace



I can't remember why

I chose to say goodbye

I'm terrified of what I might have severed

I ended up too high

But never learned to fly

So coming down I'm very thankful



I can't remember why

I chose to say goodbye

I'm terrified of what I might have severed

I ended up too high

But never learned to fly

So coming down I'm very thankful
