The Last Flight of the Mongeese

Fly

I can’t remember who I am
Can’t remember how I came to be
And hardly give a damn
But for the look in your face
As I’m floundering plain in your view

I cannot hold the weight I bear
My fragile bones are breaking down
My bloody flesh torn bare
Though I lose grip on myself
I will not be taken from you
So, I take to the air

Two steps away; I beg you, dear
Hold fast; just let me disappear
The light of seven thousand suns
Couldn’t light my path to you from here
Stop staring at me; I’d rather be dead
I’ll not have you watch me cling to the shreds
I’ll rip the bond between us
Wrap it like a rope around your neck

Step away from me
May you soon forget our memory
Stop; step away from me
Let me slip away
And let yourself be set free

[Chorus]
It won't be long
Before my tortured soul
Falls through the veil of the grey
Will you remember
When my mind is broken
And my body has rotted away?

As I plunge to my death
I think of you one last time as
I beg your heart to forget
The pain you confine
As I leave you with nothing and die
I’ll leave you with nothing
