Embers and Coal

It Seems ive lost the key
The one to open doors behind the eyes
No more memories
It appears that our fire had died
Now, none but but smouldering embers
Stoke the fear of the flame unremembered

God knows
As he held the stars aloft
And in their place in the sky
Each a promise pinned on high

One by one
They all came crashing down
Amdist the hopes i held to light
Now the darkness grow with your every lie

You were my reason for surrender
And the hope in the dreams that i lost so long ago
The Welcoming warmth i hadnt felt in forever
Now im but a king sat upon his throne of embers and coal

Spare me a memory
No more reaching in this mind
Why play the enemy
Cuz im terrified of what i might find

You know
That i tried to bare my soul
Every step of the way
On this broken road to nowhere

As you stole
Every word I gave in grace
Forsaking all these pearls
I cast before you

You were my reason for surrender
And the hope in the dreams that I lost so long ago
The Welcoming warmth i hadnt felt in forever
Now im but a king sat upon his throne of embers and coal

All in moderation
And all in due time
Our hopes and our dreams
Are still yours
There just no longer mine

You speak of enemies
Yet you left me to die
You fleeced my revelations just to go and chase a literal dime

Now, ya tryina point the finger at me
And punch out my buttons
As if i were a vending machine

Matter of fact now, one more thing
Ya got another thing coming if ya thinking that i owe you
