Leaving

Time lost, miles away In a world of bullets In a bed, an empty space A picture frame, a portrait The night falls, I'm awake I'm left to rust in silence I withdraw my mistakes I'm left to trust in violence Well, can you teach me how to fly In a world so shallow? Will you show me I'm alive Or find a way to get home? I'm alive but paralyzed By the sight of bloodshed fights Shoot 'em right between the eyes Can I let it go when I'm leaving? I'm weak inside but built to fight Living life through compromise Terrified to prove me right Can I let this go when I'm leaving? Headstones borrow names Inscribed by anxious patients Fate calls, our blurry fate Lies in the hands we're chaste with And bearing all, bombs away Curing fear with makeshift plans Conquer the fall, we'll do it Comfort the fall with bullshit Well, can you teach me how to fly In a world so shallow? Will you show me I'm alive Or find a way to get home? I'm alive but paralyzed By the sight of bloodshed fights Shoot 'em right between the eyes Can I let it go when I'm leaving? I'm weak inside but built to fight Living life through compromise Terrified to prove me right Can I let this go when I'm leaving? Well, can you teach me how to fly In a world so shallow? Will you show me I'm alive Or find a way to get home? I'm alive but paralyzed By the sight of bloodshed fights Shoot 'em right between the eyes Can I let it go when I'm leaving?
