The Keys I Discarded

How, through our own failures and errors, we often push away people we care about

We've dug our graves for every occasion

Celebrating the deaths of each emotion

We're our demons and our own saints

We are only by ourselves betrayed

Ashes and dust, memories to the wind

I'm anxious to see the outcome

So I'll drown my world in it's own sins

So shall I send a letter or wave goodbye

(I'm a pulsar ready to destroy)

The hero has the keys to kingdom

(It's a savage, destructive type of joy)

Using them to lock himself away

I returned in the middle of the night

To put back the pieces of your glass heart

And there's little use now in crying

As I'm already past the event horizon

A funeral pyre for all my calamities

Another mistake that I had to make

So I'll strangle what hope is left in me

So shall I send a letter or wave goodbye

(I'm a pulsar ready to destroy)

The hero has the keys to kingdom

(It's a savage, destructive type of joy)

Using them to lock himself away
