I was never one for erasing life
I built my spirit on the choice to stand my ground
But now you find me at a crossroads
Moving further from what i′ve found
You claimed an accident, I claim a civil choice
To break my spirit and toss me to the wolves
All i asked was for a friend
But that's too much
I guess it depends
Cause if you′re willing to forgive me
I'm willing to forget you
Now set your pride aside and look me in the eyes
Are not these days just filled with
Petty talks and worthless walks to nowhere
I'm worth more than that
And oh, what wind of blame shall breathe upon your back
The shame that comes to men like you
What ways you take to hide from truth
And oh, I′ve had quite enough of dealing
With that see through plastic screen you call your word
I won′t be a joke no more
No played out subtle joke no more
I've given up too much time for your explanation
There once were days where we shared some special moments
Cared for one another through our excitation
Yet now my love for you is gone
A stranger stands in place of what once i felt was a brother in arms
You sacrificed it all
And now you′ll watch the ravens fly as roses fall
Go
And when the rain comes down
While troubles eye's stuck staring at your soul
Dont cry to me
You had every chance to change it
It′s nothing but your fault
For all the pain you've cast upon
The memories of better days stuck in place
I want but one of you to know you′ve had your time playing with mine
So face the sky to see what's coming next
There's no place for fear when nothing′s left
Cause now you′re just a shell
How could your eyes look so familiar to the man i used to know so well
I've seen all you′ve got to offer
I'm not impressed at all
So just watch the ravens fly as roses fall
