Remember Me

It's safe to say there's only now
A place called home is just a memory away
I know I've done this all before
A thousand silent voices begging me to stay

Apologies all left unsaid
Secrets better left unspoken
Dreams laid down and put to bed
Rumors stirred and re-awoken

If I try to get away
How long until I'm free?
And if I don't come back here
Will you remember me?

It's safe to say there's nothing now
It's all so quiet but I can't forget the sound
A thousand voices call my name
A thousand hands that pull me
Back down to the ground

I turn away from what you are
Denying all that you have given
But find a place that's safe and far
In time, all will be forgiven

If I try to get away
How long until I'm free?
And if I don't come back here
Will you remember me?
