Lyrics For All Eternity – The Vacated
Text:
As the wind blows, hope from sorrow
This place we used to call our home leaves me cold as stone
The voice of the vacated is still present
In a way it has never left
Old wounds are the words I have left unsaid
The pain behind these eyes is the kind you don’t forget
You’ve taken everything, more of me that anyone ever has
Now I’m taking it all back, taking it back
We were tethered, you and I
Tangled up in a lie, intertwined
We were tethered, held together
I may seem free but I’m lost behind your eyes
Pain is shaping who I am
Time is taking me away from this
When I arrive, survived and determined
I can rebuild with the pieces that remain untaken
I may be broken and hurting in this place you left
Place you left
But in a flicker, this will be a memory
Years in the past
Hold on, hold on, hold on
These words will soon be gone
My heart refuses to restart
It once beat in time with yours
Our eyes lock and I remember what we’ve lost
Across this barren plane, staring you in the face
I’ll say it again as I’ve said it before
These scars are the same as yours
As the wind blows, hope from sorrow
