Slow Burn (Redux)

I walk the lonely road

Faces blurred by distance

Cross so many paths

No one ever stays

We all have loved

We all have failed

I have given up

I tried more than you'll ever know

Bitter and broken

Trying to turn the page again

Barren lands feel more

Whole than this

Empty feelings of promise

Can't fill the void

Barely breathing

Trying not to suffocate

Old wounds feel the air

Sutures ripped wide open

We all have loved

We all have failed
