Six Of Swords

I made my bed from glass and poor judgment
Each shard a token of my grief
You wouldn’t believe my tales
What could I do but run for the mountains?
Confined I’ll be restored anew
Remembering who I am

Haunt me not my dear memories
I can’t bear living in this fear
Hold me near
I’m yours
I’m yours

Flee
The ghosts won’t find me here
I’ll flee
Lose the bodies in the sea
Flee
Escape into the black trees
Oh please
Forgive the worst of me

By firelight I farewelled my demons
In the shroud of night vowed to change my fate
To make my escape somehow
Cruel whispers carry across open waters
Reminding me I might want to forget
But they’ll never let me go

Haunt me not my dear memories
I can’t bear living in this fear
Hold me near
I’m yours
I’m yours

Flee
The ghosts won’t find me here
I’ll flee
Lose the bodies in the sea
Flee
Escape into the black trees
Oh please
Forgive the worst of me
