A careless leper
Too comfortable in his own world
To notice the the older wounds
Have new infections

With new intentions
Darkness settled in behind me
Tapped me on the shoulder singing
Shivers to my spine

From the corners of my mind
I've been wanting to remind you
Of everything you've left behind

And wouldn't you
Shouldn't you remember me
Should you forget, I haven't yet

Remember when we almost stepped right off
Between the two heavens one above and one below
One last flight all stars and city lights
One last goodbye, one last goodbye

She's there when I'm alone
And she always seems to know
The stories that'll take me
Back to where my comforts sleep

A caress with velvet paws
That hide her sharpened claws
Along the walls that time has built high
Searching for the blemishes

And I know she's breathing murder
That it is folly to endure her
But there is sweetness in her whisper
When you've had enough, I'll be waiting

Wouldn't you
Shouldn't you remember me
Should you forget, I haven't yet

You know that we can always step right off
Between the two heavens one above and one below
One last flight all stars and city lights
One last goodbye, one last goodbye

I've never known a life without her
At every turn she's there her comfort I despise
But there's a coward in me
Fearing any changes for the trial

Hopeless is a hideaway familiar escape
I've never known a life without her
At every turn, she's there

Yesterday's a siren
Singing memories so inviting
Sometimes reaping takes a lifetime
But I'm pushing on, with living life

Renewed in mind, I say goodbye to yesterday, the siren
Singing memories so inviting
Sometimes reaping takes a lifetime
But I'm pushing on, with the mind of Christ

I say goodbye
And watch her die
