Axium – Leave Behind lyrics

Seeing all my mistakes etched in stone
Peeling all the layers of my soul and I feel alone
You stand beside me, a shadow of myself and I feel hollow
And I can't swallow
No, it's not fair
Nobody ever told me it would be this hard
Forgive me no more promises; he'll tell you no more lies
It's not supposed to be this way

Reach your steady hand
Reach your promised land
With or without me
'Cause I'm falling far away
To fumble the light of day and I cease to be
But take comfort in the fact
That I won't be hanging on your back as you go forward
So say your prayers and say goodnight
Whether you're wrong, whether you're right I know it's hard
To be who you want to be

No time to sit and comprehend; I've made up my mind
To be a martyr for the cause
And I can't pretend to mind
And you stand beside me, an outline of myself and I feel okay
And I seem okay
Oh it's not fair
Nobody ever told me this would never end
And it happens once again, oh
So go and lead your own life and leave me to mine
I'm not prepared to die

Reach your steady hand
Reach your promised land
With or without me
'Cause I'm falling far away
To fumble the light of day and I cease to be
But take comfort in the fact
I won't be hanging on your back as you go forward
So say your prayers and say goodnight
Whether you're wrong, whether you're right I know it's hard
To be who you want to be

Reach your steady hand
Reach your promised land
With or without me
'Cause I'm falling far away
To fumble the light of day and I cease to be
And you'll never ever be
But take comfort in the fact
I won't be hanging on your back as you go forward
So say your prayers and say goodnight
Whether you're wrong, whether you're right I know it's hard
Be who you want to be, yeah
To be who you want to be
