We've lived, had hope, taken your words to heart, and tried to do right by you. Its easy to forgive now that I see your intention, now that I feel that same burning thats plagued you.
But I won't forget. But I can’t forget. No, I can't forget that as your blood boiled, we swallowed the flame. We bore the brunt of it.
You were shaking in bed, coming down from the morphine, when I realized what kind of man you were. Never home at night, days spent in strife. You were killing yourself to keep us alive.
I'll try to remember. I want to beat this. I'll try to remember. I wanna find tranquility. I'll try to remember. When the world is coming down, I'll try to remember.
Deep breath.
These are embers, not a fire. Theres nothing worth kindling that blaze. Deep breath, now remember. These are embers, not a fire. Not a fire.
