If you choose

By SetAfire

Now that your gone
It seems i'm myself agian
I was craving the thigs I couldn't replace
Still can't redeem all that I gave

Couldn't you watch with me one last time
As the sun sets in the west
Watch me follow
Leave you behind

Choose to follow if you will
I will wait for you
Then let us walk together
No leading
No following
Let us go to an undying peace

The strength built when you left
I've become unyeilding
Had a wall to protect me
Never believed you'd be the one to break it

Couldn't you stay just one more night
As the moon rests above
Watch me smile
As I leave the pain behind

Choose to follow if you will
I will wait for you
Then let us smile together
No leading
No following
let us laugh at the chaos

If you walk with me
I'll walk by you
to turn our backs against dark times
To let this corrupt society die
Hand in hand
Walk through our past pains
Just one last time
Find happiness one day.
