Let me forget (Duskwalker Singularity Null Cover)

(Verse 1) The window shows a world in gold and blue Dust motes dancing in the afternoon Don't know how long I've watched them from this room It feels like a lifetime, ending all too soon My lungs are tired travelers, short on air Each breath a shallow anchor, holding me here There's a quiet in the corners, a weight I can't bear And the whispers of the fight have disappeared (Chorus) So this is the letting go, the final, quiet bow The war was never mine to win, I see that clearly now The river's found the ocean, no more currents left to fight I'm turning off the porch light, and surrendering to the night Just surrendering to the night (Verse 2) Your photograph is fading on the stand I trace your smile with a trembling hand Tried to hold on, to make you understand But I'm a castle built on shifting sand Every promise that I made is turning into ghosts Haunting all the empty chairs and silent morning toasts I've entertained the sorrow, been a very gracious host But the guest I wanted most is the one I miss the most (Chorus) And this is the letting go, the final, quiet bow The war was never mine to win, I see that clearly now The river's found the ocean, no more currents left to fight I'm turning off the porch light, and surrendering to the night Just surrendering to the night (Bridge) Don't be angry, don't you cry for me This isn't weakness, it's a final plea For peace, the kind of sleep that sets you free From a body that became the enemy The ceiling starts to blur... the colors wash to gray... I think I heard you call my name... from so far away... (Outro) One last silver thread of air Hangs fragile in the space A final, silent prayer Then nothing takes its place The drumming in my chest... Has played its final set... Let me rest... Let me forget... ...Goodnight.
