I Left It All Behind (feat. David Joshua) Video (MV)

There's a desert in my head, a dry place in my mind
I know now that a dryer place I could not ever find
There's driftwood and dry skulls and molts of many kinds
Where once I did imagine but I left that all behind

I call up my old friends but I just can't recall their lives
They've all grown up and have some things and all I have are lies
I tell myself I won't be left out dinner for the flies
So once I did imagine but I left it all behind

It's a dust bowl full of tumbleweeds, a place where nothing lives
It's a place for my ideas back when I had ideas to give
There's a frozen wasteland right out there where I can go snowblind
And once I did imagine there, I left it all behind

My home is just a lightless box, a place that I designed
A lonely room of darkness where no light has ever shined
I never can get out of there, I always am confined
Once I did imagine there and left it all behind

I don't know how it happened, I wish someone would remind
It's like I had an orange and now I just have the rind
I thought that I could write something, a help for all mankind
Though once I did imagine there, I left it all behind

I'm longing for a way to realize what I have outlined
A generation walks with me, and they are so maligned
And maybe they could help me in my world that's so unkind
To repossess what I imagined and I left behind

If I could just return from this place that I have designed
Then life would be worth living, also death would be declined
There would be many things deep in my conscience to be mined
The things that I imagined and I thought I'd left behind

Now I don't see a way ever my hands I could unbind
And if I cannot use them, then I might as well be blind
I'd take my life and to my fate then I would be resigned
Cause once I did imagine but I left it all behind
