So your parting gift to me Has been again for me to see That the fewer dreams I have The less there is for me to lose, I’ll place my trust in the plan divine And hope these wounds will heal in time, To the heavens I’ll never cry, I’ll just breathe until I die.
So much I can’t touch again, Too many hearts I can’t trust again, Too much pain and hurt for me to care, What you do, what you do, So long as it brings a smile to your face, I haven’t the arrogance to wish for more, Hear but this one plea, remember me, Remember me, remember me, Honour will carry this martyr’s mien, For you I cannot weep again.
All of the tears that I have wept, The seas of ichor I have bled, Not much of it has had a sense- The grand scheme is such I’ll always lose, In my embittered view of fate It’s no use being consumed by hate- You may come to the same point as I, Where it’s harder to live than die.
So much I can’t touch again, Too many hearts I can’t trust again, Too much pain and hurt for me to care, What you do, what you do, So long as it brings a smile to your face, I haven’t the arrogance to wish for more, Hear but this one plea, remember me, Remember me, remember me, Honour will carry this martyr’s mien, For you I cannot weep again.
No mark on the world can I make That someone will not strive to take, No more can I withstand the call Of my tempters to surrender all, Better to live of will devoid Than to see truth again destroyed, My course I’ve lost the need to choose Since my heart was so disabused.
So much I can’t touch again, Too many hearts I can’t trust again, Too much pain and hurt for me to care, What you do, what you do, So long as it brings a smile to your face, I haven’t the arrogance to wish for more, Hear but this one plea, remember me, Remember me, remember me, Honour will carry this martyr’s mien, For you I cannot weep again.
