Fade To Black

So, you let her go
And then she walked away
And never came back home

Wasn't so easy
Being handed everything you have to hold

See how it weeps
And the tears do come
And fall upon your knees
It's not so easy
When you're only choice is just to
Let it go

She scratched and clawed
While crawling in the garden
Begging pleading on her knees
Just hold me for a moment
And you'll surely cure my disease
How can you leave me when what ails me
Is still buried in my bones?

So I tried to forget her
And I'm never, ever
Looking back
As I look into the sun
It fades to black

I'm on my own
And when I walk away
I never come back home
It's just so easy
To become the only story
You've been told

Patience, Patient One
Just hold on a little longer
This is fun
Bating breathing
Body's closed from letting in or
Letting Go

I saw her face beneath me
As I felt the ache that fell at my feet
"Which one can hold onto
Or grasp at Heaven's Mercy Seat?
Why do you pray me weeping willow
For a root I can't provide?"

"See you came to me my dear
In search of one more careful caress
But look these empty hands
And say what salve you think I possess
These hands they bleed because you still believe
That I'm Emmanuel"

So I tried to forget you
And I'm never ever looking back
As I look into the sun
It fades to black

That's how it goes
When you walk away
And never come back home
It's just so easy
To abandon all the thoughts
You used to hold

Patience, Patient One
Just hold on a little longer
This is fun
It's just a memory
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go…

Go…
O…
O…

So, you let her go
And then she walked away
And never came back home
Wasn't so easy
Being handed everything you have to hold

See how it weeps
And the tears do come
And fall upon your knees
It's not so easy
When you're only choice is just to
Let it go
