All that Remains

Looking over my shoulder at the road that follows

What once seemed to matter now dust at my feet

Memories whisper at the edge of perception

Silent reminders of a life incomplete

And all that remains

Are the scars to remind me

And all the lives I've thrown away

And all that remains

Are the bars that confine me

To a past I can't escape

Words that are unspoken are now reminders

Each second dies a silent death unmourned

I tried as a martyr to lead her, to guide her

Now I'm alone painted by the color of scorn

And all that remains

Are the scars to remind me

And all the lives I've thrown away

And all that remains

Are the bars that confine me

To a past I can't escape
