Nothing Leaves This Room

(album: First Born - 2011)

Everything you ever wanted was laying at your feet,
A loving family with open arms and everything,
I can see so clearly now,
I can almost feel it right now,
It's keeping me awake

Stuck in this empty room,
Replaying everything in my head,
I can almost feel it as much as I don't want to,
I tried to show you the man that I could be,
But now it's over, it's time to let this be,
I'm moving on with a new perspective,
Leaving all the pieces of this
Broken home in my rear view mirror,
It's time for me to start over

And every single chance I get
I say a prayer for you and your safety,
Why God, why have you abandoned me?

Memories are all you'll ever have,
I hope they stay with you forever and always,
I hope they stay with you,
I won't forget a thing, take everything,
Remember me
