In Memory

"Don't stray from the path my son, just hold on" My mother said
 "Before it's too late"
 Take a piece of me and carry it with you always
 Coz it's never too late to lead your life out of the hell you've resided in
 So far in the distance, I can finally see the light
 At the end of this twisting tunnel, burning bright, burning bright
 Find some comfort, in these words I give to you
 Your reasons to live are yours to atone
 The future is yours but the past is set in stone
 Yeah, the past is set in stone
 A new lease of life it flows right through my blood
 Sealing all the fractures that have rendered me, rendered me undone
 Defiance wields it's weary head in my time of need
 So I'll take to the high ground and watch the waves wash over everything
 And cleanse the ashes of an empire built from the bones of you and me
 The bones of you and me
 Leave the ghosts behind you and pick up the pieces
 Coz we've got so far to go
 So far in the distance, I can finally see the light
 At the end of this twisting tunnel, burning bright, burning bright
 Find some comfort, in these words I give to you
 Your reasons to live are yours to atone
 The future is yours but the past is set in stone
 Set in stone
 And set in stone
 So I will follow the water down to the ocean shore
 And send my demons out to sea because they've run their course
 Now I can say goodbye one final time
 Time... woh-oh-oh woh-oh-oh
 So I will follow the water down to the ocean shore
 And send my demons out to sea because they've run their course
 Now I can say goodbye one final time
 One final time
 Just know I love you, and that things will be ok
 But that doesn't mean I don't miss you, every single day
 This journey we've taken to leave your lasting legacy
 Now I can finally live in this moment 'cause you're with me in my memories
 With me in my memories
