What's Left of Me - Avantasia
I think of the days
I was thrilled by this
Road ahead
When the moment won over
What was to come
Not afraid of the distance
But the distance afraid of me
Everytime I made it there
I found nothing
The distance was gone
Now I don't wanna fade
But I ain't gonna run
I'm resting my head on these stones
God what have you done
To you and me
I'm tired of scaring the future away
No road ahead
The fire is dead
Father don't you see
In front of you
Is what the chase
Has left of me
If only they told me
What the kerbside was hiding away
Where the angels from high street
Didn't want to go
And a heartbeat is forced to resign
To the glory of a commonplace
I am jaded
I don't wanna see
What's becoming of me
Here's a bit
Then spare me this sight now
Cut it out
I'm tired of the future myself
I don't wanna fade
But I ain't gonna run
I'm resting my head on these stones
God what have you done
To you and me
I'm tired of scaring the future away
No road ahead
The fire is dead
Father don't you see
In front of you
Is what's left of me
God and glory torn to pieces
No no
It's just the spirit of the times
I'm drawn to a flame that won't release me
Release me
And
I see a thousand who wait in line
I don't wanna face
What I ain't gonna stand
I'm resting my head on these stones
God what have you done
Look at yourself
I'm tired of scaring the future away
The dark road ahead
The fire is dead
Father don't you see
What you have made of me
