  • You're weak and tired
    It's always a scent in the air
    It seems you're trying
    To capture what's not really there
    And so, remember
    The ones that you used up for gain
    You'll live forever
    With no side effects of your shame

    So run, get a little further away from me
    Goodbye, a little bit of fire in your apathy
    So burn, every little piece that you take from me
    Don't turn your back till there's nothing that's left of me

    The thirst has woken
    And nobody seems so aware
    The fakes and liars
    Are newly elected as heirs
    Opine, and render
    Your judgments from basements and chairs
    Maligned, we fester
    It seems you're all so self aware

    So run, get a little further away from me
    Goodbye, a little bit of fire in your apathy
    So burn, every little piece that you take from me
    Don't turn your back till there's nothing that's left of me

    Can you feel it going down?
    Is it lost to your attention?
    Break the seal and drink it down
    Until you've lost your apprehension

    So run, get a little further away from me
    Goodbye, a little bit of fire in your apathy
    So burn, every little piece that you take from me
    Goodbye, get a little further away from me Writer/s: SHAUN MORGAN WELGEMOED
