There were many things I should have said to you
Many years have passed, you've come to me at last
But now I see your face, the words have been erased
I couldn't ease your pain, I failed you again
And as they part the drapes, it's like a waking dream
The feeling dissipates, my body starts to scream
This cannot be your face that's staring back at me
And now I feel the rage boil into agony
You were my final cause
A pale light in the fog
I hope you traveled well
I'll lay you down with a shadow of myself
When I sent you away it was a courtesy
I wanted you to stay but pride has silenced me
You had a life to live and I was such a waste
I couldn't keep you in this deadly embrace
(Chorus)
I'll try to struggle on alone without a cause
As you fade away from me...from me
And so the story goes...
You found your way back home
The bonds you thought you broke
Were stronger than you'd hoped
Fate condemned your flight
And burned your wings with spite
But you will live again
You will live on my friend
