One year on
Nothing but tainted memory
You’re long gone
Into a place that used to be
Burn the past and all that wasn’t meant to last
Time to cleanse my soul
Rewind, erase, destroy the place you held in me
Time to make it whole
(Ritual) I sacrificed too much time on you
(Ritual) Free my mind, got to make it through the flames
(Ritual) Cleanse my soul and make me whole again
(Ritual) Forget I ever met you or even knew your name
No!
Wasted time
You’re just a stain on my heart
A bad design
That never fit right from the start
I was blinded by your kindness and a love that you could not sustain
(You talked the talk, you couldn’t walk the walk)
You’ve moved on and now you’re gone, an emptiness
You’ve left nothing but pain
(Ritual) I sacrificed too much time on you
(Ritual) Free my mind, got to make it through the flames
(Ritual) Cleanse my soul and make me whole again
(Ritual) Forget I ever met you or even knew your name
No!
(Ritual) I sacrificed too much time on you
(Ritual) Free my mind, got to make it through the flames
(Ritual) Cleanse my soul and make me whole again
(Ritual) Forget I ever met you or even knew your name
No!
