Caught in headlights we froze in fear
One of us would be free to flee
Who gets to decide
Whose life comes as a prize
And you stand over me
But you won't here me plead
If I knew how it ends would I keep myself safe
You pull me back again I lose sight of my escape
And you make my demise
Was it of my design?
Let go of my hand
Run for open air
When I give you my last breath
I'll be strong but dressed for death
I'll sing my last song for you
The echoes will ring true they will haunt you
I'll be closer to the sky
Watch the earth burn to the cries
And I'll see your face surrender to the fate
Your eyes will pierce me they will haunt me
Whispers in dreams speak my fear
Silence of my peace deadening
Am I losing my grace
There's no more I can take
It started with you
The end that I knew
When you kiss my tears they don't take away my pain
You fall down to your knees for the fear of reckoning
Buried under the weight
Is my body to frail
Pulled under the waves
Reach for air
When I give you my last breath
I'll be strong but dressed for death
I'll sing my last song for you
The echoes will ring true they will haunt you
I'll be closer to the sky
Watch the earth burn to the cries
And I'll see your face surrender to the fate
Your eyes will pierce me they will haunt me
With all I could give
I'm the one who's deceived
And I pray all the love that I've lost I'll redeem
And I've come undone
When it's dark after dawn
As you fade from me I'm nameless for evermore
With all that you take
Is more than I can spare
I'm only this and no more than dead air
I'm only this
I'm only this
I'm only this
When I gave you my last breath
I'll be strong but dressed for death
And I'll sing my last song for you
The echoes will ring true
They will haunt you
Now you've taken my last breath
I was strong and dressed for death
And I'll sing my last song for you
Echoes they rang true
Did they haunt you?
Now I'm closer to the sky
Watch the earth burn to the cries
And I'll see your face surrender to the fate
Your eyes will pierce me they will haunt me
