Anew

All I love and made – gone
You are all I have – a stranger

You have a certain air
Why elect me as the conduit to grief?
Have I not suffered enough?
You’re just adding to the load
I’d believe the hope around me
If it wasn’t me you chose

Save me – such an empty term
Forsake me – no one ever learns
Redeem me – how is that deserved?
Erase me – from this haggard earth

It’s the reason I’m searching for
It’s the reason that I was born
It’s the reason I can’t ignore
I’ve been waiting forever more
Tell me when and I’ll go with you
Say you promise and I will too
Take me somewhere I can be free
Somewhere I don’t even know me

Let’s start anew
Let’s build on the darkness and silence

Save me – such an empty term
Forsake me – no one ever learns
Redeem me – how is that deserved?
Erase me – from this haggard earth

Let’s start anew
Let’s build on the darkness and silence
