I know this goodbye means nothing
It's just a chance to cheat destiny...

I'm gazing out the window
The water trickling down...

I have hidden my life away in a box
Packed in steel with hundreds of locks...

I got lost in a plastic bag
All caught up in the ways of the world...

Where the horizon sits up high
And many bright stars blinker the sky...

Perhaps such words come faster
Not because of ease...

Trees, proud from the fortunes of time spent stood
Now lay barren in the field of deceased victory...

I am a stranger
I creep about at night...

You know I could have been a soldier
Shame I hate to see death in the eyes...

I'm not sure how I feel right now
Now that nothing's black and white...

Drifting away
No longer hearing the words that you say...

The embers fade away
Fade to grey...
