Ascension - What It Means to Let Go
I've seen the eyes of death, But I'm still here to tell the tale. I've arrived having sacrificed, And I don't intend on wasting this life.
What more should I know If this is what I have to show for? It may be hard to forget my past, But now it's all coming back again.
And after all this time away Oh, would you feel the same, Oh, could we be the same? If time could heal the stain, I've a shot through the chest, And a heart shaped ring.
But now it seems as though This shred of hope Could've been in vain, And it could've been so easy: I could've listened, I could've stayed, I should've never walked away.
But what would have become of a life when All it has to show is an absence of hope.
Tell me please that you haven't forgotten me, So we could say we were sorry.
Perfectly we were Living for every word, Until you overheard What your life was really worth.
Ashes to ashes The world crumbled down, And I knew I wouldn't make it If I were to stay, if I was still around.
Oh, how lucky am I to be here… Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
For your sake, you tell me: Should I remain?
It only takes one to change your life, And I know you will stay, But if I appeared on your doorstep this evening, Would you push me away?
Am I a statement for everything That's been abandoned to reasoning? Or is it fate that I made the decision to leave And make a new life overseas?
I regret to inform That I have not abandoned you, But I implore you to know That there was nothing I could do.
Be my guest, attempt to condemn, The beaten scarred and defeated,
But I can swear you'll be sorry.
Perfectly we were Living for every word, Until you overheard What your life was really worth.
Ashes to ashes The world crumbled down, And I knew I wouldn't make it If I were to stay, if I was still around.
Oh, how hard will it be to stay here.
I've seen the eyes of death, But I'm still here to tell the tale. I've arrived having sacrificed, And I don't intend on wasting this life.
