My Great Devastator

No - I'll lay half empty, half finished,
 half written, until my end
 I'll leave the lights on just in case
 you want to be found again
 To the dead, I wrote you countless letters
 dear only some I sent
 How easy it was for silence to say
 some of the loudest of things
 To speak so effortlessly the words and syllables
 that can crush in an instant
 To our end, to the dear departed
 Are you my last chance or the first chapter
 in the greatest fable ever told
 For the rope is getting shorter and these days
 they are getting longer with every ghosts I find
 They leave no heart unbroken
 my great devastator
 To our end, to the dear departed
 Are you my last chance or the first chapter
 in the greatest fable ever told
 I'll leave the lights on just in case
 you want to be found again
 My great devastator
