lyrics

The trail through these woods has proved treacherous
Steps once wild with aplomb grow more cautious
That's not to say I haven't tried
Felt your hand here at my side, before you go

I'll throw away all that's left of who you display
Bones and gratitude for those I name who have fallen through

Traced those razor edged hills through the city skyline
Disengaged the clutch and coasted down the other side
Where it saddened me to find that the rush didn't make me feel alive

I'll batten down all that's left of this former life
It's bones and anxiousness
that I decided is old and riddled with things I despise
Oh, but what I wouldn't give
to take it back

That's not to say I haven't tried
Felt your hand here at my side, before you go

I'll throw away all that's left of who you display
Bones and gratitude for those I name who have fallen through
Those I name who have fallen through
Those I name who have
Fallen through
