I'm gonna die
and I'll die I'll die alone
like a king upon a throne
I've been thrown away
to the ground
without a chance to make a sound
I hang on and behind me the weight still latches on
I drag on to find it
but the reason is now gone
and I know I know it's dead weight and i'll never be real
and I know I know so quiet
so clean and deadly still
hold still
Every love I've loved alone
The silent queen
the one at home
and the leaves do change
and so do we
and I'm not sure
how we got out so peacefully
Quiet and listen to me
we're swaying
like dust in the breeze
and I'll let you go
if that's what it takes
at least I'll know
that you will be safe
are you listening?
clean in the hopes of return
at least not to me no
by now I've learn
so I'll sit right here
and watch it burn down
til there's nothing left
no embers on the ground
you should know
that we live
only once
every time
that i died
was for you
and I know that this life isn't fair
or at least what I hoped
I know we'll keep it quiet and clean
and away from the machines
it turns out
it was all a dream
it was all in my head
that which lead me to my death
when I found out
and realize
there was no one by my side
we all die
we all die and die
alone
