The skies are ablaze I wander alone A son without a home Caught between the ticking hands of time My steps grow heavy Facing life’s bitter mistakes On the road of the damned Tears scatter to the seven winds My walls have crumbled They’ve plundered my memories Past glories left behind Now buried in this suffering I'm a fallen hero, broken and lost No courage left to meet your eyes Your pain is the prize of a war so senseless I'm my own enemy Guilt never lets me rest My mind is the sharpest threat Running away, yet danger lies within me Wandering through this long, sad verse Of a poem that’s lost its way Of a line that I’ve paid with pain Of a wish that mocks itself My walls have crumbled They’ve plundered my memories Past glories left behind Now buried in this suffering I'm a fallen hero, broken and lost No courage left to meet your eyes Your pain is the prize of a war so senseless I'm my own enemy Guilt never lets me rest My mind is the sharpest threat Running away, yet danger lies within me The skies are ablaze I wander alone A son without a home Caught between the ticking hands of time
