Abandoned

Let's take a moment of silence
 For the part of you that's left of me
 My father told me, Son
 Die fast and young
 Or everybody leaves
 You turn away your head in regret
 And it makes you forget your place
 You stand frozen
 You won't make it out of this
 The lifeline is easily broken
 We've gotta get out of here
 My eyes close, I go through the motions
 No memories
 Just fear
 Take a look around
 I gave you my best
 Will you curse the very hands you shake
 When they're around your neck?
 We'll find a way to burn everything
 And I won't be there to lift you up
 You're buried in the flames
 Oh my father told me, Son
 Die fast and young or everybody leaves
 It's just another flame in me
 That I burned out too early
 Fever dreams, I can't breathe
 Lose everything, everything
 Fever dreams, I can't breathe
 Lose everything, everything
 My mind is not my own
 Take a look around
 I gave you my best
 Will you curse the very hands you shake
 When they're around your neck?
 We'll find a way to burn everything
 And I won't be there to lift you up
 You're buried in the flames
 I think I missed it all
 I watched you break away from me
 I think I missed it all
 I watched you break away from me
 I must admit after all
 When you took another step
 And the bottom falls
 But not enough to forget
 How could I give up the chance to miss
 A life of love, bliss and happiness
 Traded for their agony and selfishness
 There's nothing left of me to give
 My mind is not my own
 Take it away, take it away it's not mine
