We fell together, and then we fell apart

So absent minded I was blinded from the start

Excuses hollow, absent and alone

Trying to find a place for me to lay my head and home



I needed some time to take time for myself

I needed a moment to breathe

I needed some silence to placate the violence growing inside of me



So scatter my ashes, and throw me to the wind

There's no rest for the wicked, and god, how I've sinned



So unaware, so disconnected

So absent minded I was blinded by the choice

But everything I have could be taken away,

without a moment to spare

With nothing ventured, there's nothing gained,

but you have to believe I still cared



Give me some time to take time for myself

Give me a moment of sleep

Give me some quiet to break up the riot growing inside of me



So scatter my ashes, and throw me to the wind

There's no rest for the wicked, and god, how I've sinned

But I tried and I tried, I just wanted to be

a better man for the rest of my days

I know that the world is bigger than you and me

Cut me open and see how I bleed



So scatter my ashes, and throw me to the wind

There's no rest for the wicked, and god, how I've sinned

But I tried and I tried, I just wanted to be

a better man for the rest of my days

I know that the world is bigger than you and me
