Please don’t go away but if you do I’ll stay behind
Carry the torch for you, burning for all the broken hearts
You’ve left behind in a wake that ripples on
Into a desertscape of cavernous minds that never rest
Are you saying you don’t know me anymore
‘Cause if that’s the question, I can still carry the load
They’re tattooed with poignancy that only the flame bearers could know
Ashes creep down their sleeves and darken their cuffs like cosmic leaves
Falling from outer space, a black hole you opened there
Where words are infinite so I’ll just think them instead
Are you saying you don’t know me anymore
‘Cause if that’s the question, I can still carry the load
