lyrics

I'll wait for the guards to come
They'll see what is left of me and come back tomorrow
Its not that I think I am done
The people around me they no longer listen
And why can't they see my face?
Its the only thing keeping me from losing my mind and its
The only thing that I have left
I dont care what they'll say and neither should you

From the bottom, to the top again

Repeating condolences
Turn right around and just walk to my forest
Eyes don't survive in this den
The sound of my feet against the limbs now forgotten
What it means to be gone, what it means to be free
I'll just keep writing songs, 'til I know how to be

From the bottom, to the top again
