Relinquish
Faith in myself
Is the only substance keeping me going in this waking hell
Held in a divine embrace
The world smudges into a blur as I wonder at my own pace.
I set off into the darkness to cast the divine light
I rose up from the ashes to continue the fight
Hazy dreams are all that remain
I no longer have the willpower to play this mind game.
Come and find me in your memories
I gave you life every time I’d bleed
My flesh and soul were offered willingly
Now you’re left with ashes and lost dreams.
Our connection had a place and a time
The thread has been cut because we’ve reached the finish line
The passion’s fire has been extinguished
We’ve regained our peace of mind that has been relinquished.
