Exile

I once heard a song
Sympathy foregone
Sung my life apart
Tore out my heart

Drew me closer just to separate me
Cut and cast me away
Silenced every call
Let myself dissolve

And they said we don't belong
But we bleed and sing along
Unto the sounds of pain

Gone are the days of we alone
Driven away to silent cold
There is the place we find our own
Follow me down in exile

I once heard a song
Restless and reborn
Woke my shattered soul
Drew me in whole

And they said we all belong
So we bleed and sing along
Unto the sounds of change

Gone are the days of we alone
Driven away to silent cold
There is the place we find our own
Follow me down in exile

Gone are the days of we alone
Driven away to silent cold
There is the place we find our own
Follow me down in exile

I found my reason in your wake
And now I'm forging our escape
No longer faltering in wait
Our voices ring beyond your grave

Gone are the days of we alone
Driven away to silent cold
There is the place we find our own
Follow me down

Gone are the days of we alone
Driven away to silent cold
There is the place we find our own
Follow me down in exile
