Remembrance Lyrics

Love went cold, buried you
Starved yourself to feed the wound
I mourn the burden I refused.
I forced your ghost to guide me through

I doubt I'll ever get you out of my head.
But I need to dig and to dig enough to let the love, to let my love back in.
Apology has lost all meaning, and my reform was way past due.
My potential is, and might always be, poison to you

Will I ever return from wayward pursuits?
Remembrance, the bitter fruit.
Carry your guilt, it can't carry you.

Took root to never bloom.
Tangled weeds to strangle you.
I mourn the burden I refused.
It's not my place to guide you through

I can no longer blame the dead for my regret,
Or let them guide my living hands.
If this is penance, I welcome it.

Will I ever return from wayward pursuits?
Remembrance, the bitter fruit.
Carry your guilt, it can't carry you.

Sunken eyes saw the corruption of my youth.
I am not a lover, I am the lesson I never learned.

Now watch me flail in the death throes of my lechery
