Astray - Evergrey

This is not for me

I can’t persist or breathe

That which poisons me

My angels are falling and I lie bare

Felled by the arrows of a different calling

Urging me to look

Look the other way

Faith’s amiss and I’m astray

This was never meant for me

So why would I stay?

The winter

Once brought me this sorrow

Since everything seems to hurt

Just let me go

Got doubts enough to fill

An emptiness, a void

I’m on the other side of life

Where I don’t belong

I threw myself in heaven’s arms

Wore my open wounds to see

You swore yourself to me

So join my hands in search of truth

Please take the giant leap with me

This world is not for me

So why should I stay?

The winter

Once brought me this sorrow

Since everything seems to hurt

Just let me go

I used to be stronger

I used to want this more

Is everything meant to hurt?

It won’t leave me alone

Layer after layer

I need to keep this hidden

Brick after brick

Buries it deeper and deeper

Leave it in the could

To be forgotten to grow old

The winter

Once brought me this sorrow

Since everything seems to hurt

Just let me go

I used to be stronger

I used to want this more

Is everything meant to hurt?

Just let me go
