Dust to Dust

The ties that bind me hold me down
With face held to the sky.
The dreams of you forever stuck,
You live on in my mind.

Accompanied by the black beyond
No one stands alone.
Extinguishing the human spark
Of a life you do not own

So live and lose, whats left to choose
To live is just to die.
A finite time left in this world,
Forever left to life.

So now I'm losing – what makes me human.
You're dying – in fires below.
Don't lead me – where I can't follow.
Don't send me – where I can't go.

What's done is done forever more
A blink of stolen time.
You leave behind an empty void,
A never ending line.

It's your voice I want to hear
Calling me from beyond.
Once your gone you can't come back,
Forever silent now.

What I am is what you made me
Earthbound now in funeral fire.
Now you've escaped the chains that bind you
Can't you see what's left behind.

So now I'm losing – what makes me human.
You're dying – in fires below.
Don't lead me – where I can't follow.
Don't send me – where I can't go.

No man is an island, no man can stand alone.
When you left you took my life, when you left you took my soul.
The darkness is waiting here, steal away your last breath.
When you look into the void, death is looking back at you.

So now I'm losing – what makes me human.
You're dying – in fires below.
Don't lead me – where I can't follow.
Don't send me – where I can't go.
