As I Lay Dying - Forsaken lyrics

i've looked straight into your eyes

and turned my head for the last time

because i was scared to leave these walls in ruin

like the fate of those who trust in themselves

we are alone and afraid

i know your are the one we left behind

yet somehow we are the ones who feel alone

i will no longer turn my head

i will never forget you

you are the one we left behind

you are the forsaken

we've built our confidence

on broken dreams now left for dead

yet we've been condemned

to chase these dreams that never end

our selfishness consumes us

until the whole world is not enough

forgive the day that i erased your name

for it's the memory of me that will decay
