Down In Flames

Down in flames, it all falls
Everything that I fought for
Proceed with abandon
What’s inside is all that’s left
The reward for my sacrifice
It’s scorn and a fist full of crumbs
Gave everything that I had and more
Despite it I am still denied
Run away
Get as far from the wreck as I can get
Waded through broken glass
As the garbage rains on me
Watch as the serpents smile
From shadows they leer at me
On my life’s blood they thirst to feed
Refuse to fall despite my wounds
Now my sorrow turns, turn to something else
Now my sorrow turns, turn to something else
Now my, now my sorrow turns
Run away
Get as far from the wreck as I can get
