All That Remains

Some days my hands still shake
I look around every corner
Expect to see your face
I feel like I can’t take
A single breath


I’ll be damned if I cower the rest of my life
I’ll be damned if I’m poor the rest of my life
I’ll be damned if I’m lost the rest of my life
I’ll be damned if I’m broken the rest of my life


All of our screams echo in my dreams
I wake up crying so many tears
Cover my head
Shiver until the morning
Comes once again

I’ll be damned if I cower the rest of my life
I’ll be damned if I’m poor the rest of my life
I’ll be damned if I’m lost the rest of my life
I’ll be damned if I’m broken the rest of my life

Now whenever I meet someone new
I wonder if they’re another you
Just waiting to destroy me
Your memory turns me away
From so many chances

I’ll be damned if I cower the rest of my life
I’ll be damned if I’m poor the rest of my life
I’ll be damned if I’m lost the rest of my life
I’ll be damned if I’m broken the rest of my life

And still I can’t forget your touch
Fingers hurting on my skin
I close my eyes to feel the phantom pain
But you’re not really here anymore

I’ll be damned if I cower the rest of my life
I’ll be damned if I’m poor the rest of my life
I’ll be damned if I’m lost the rest of my life
I’ll be damned if I’m broken the rest of my life

Not by you
