Remember Me

(album: The Death We Seek - 2023)

I can sense it; I've convinced myself that the world I love is gone.
The blood is on the walls, the damage has been done.
We carry the weight of selfless scars we silently crave.
Upon a pedestal we place our pain.

One quandary for the counsel; too humble to brag.
Cut the venom out, but the snake still buries its fangs.
So when you take a look deep inside yourself, it swells and it stings.
Like a chemical reaction burning your brain.
In lies the weight of our regrets, sharpen the knives that cut through our deepest strings of hate;
Show me the love you've always wanted.

All the love is gone, driven apart by what we all have seen;
We're falling over ourselves.
How do we mourn what's lost, what never will be?
Remember me, remember me as you loved me.

Carry the weight of selfless scars we silently crave.
Show me your hands and touch the stars with me.
We're never just on one path, one road to travel it seems
Our story's infinite and we've just been pulling at the strings;
And now there never will be.

We have exercised the will of parasites.
Witness the birth of innocence and our call to grow.

All the love is gone, driven apart by what we all have seen;
We're falling over ourselves.
How do we mourn what's lost, what never will be?
Remember me, remember me as you loved me.

Carry the weight of selfless scars we silently crave.
Show me your hands and touch the stars with me.
Falling walls like mountains form where I stand.
You are my family, and I will not let hate be my last sin.
