caskets of stars

You wanna know what it's like with this fate I've got?
Can't think about it, just count and count
Gotta make your decision and send them on
Tally all the things that they did wrong

You're no exception, with those empty words still on your tongue
I did this all for you, and here's how you repay us?
If you won't face what you've done
I'll never let you go, and you can't run

As you can tell, I won't tire
I could keep you chained here for all of time
Until you'll finally look me in the eye
And keep your promise, but you and I

Both know you won't, will you
You won't, will you
You won't, will you
You won't

Dusty pillars stand like caskets of stars
Our voices ricochet off them like bullets through the halls
Running out of time, but I won't let you go
You're not leaving 'til you fix what you broke

But silence spreads around a new sound
Quiet footsteps echo around
He's only a child, but he's here 'cause he needs you
He'll do this because he loves you

I chose this fate for you
It was all for you
And you failed him and yet
He loves you
