What of me?
What is it you see?
It hurts so bad to ask
But it hurts worse when you leave
I've drunk my fill
I'm scared of sitting still
Of hiding in the tower
I've so intimately built
Where did I go?
I'm lost in the shadow of this throne
Where did I go?
I'm lost in the pile of these bones
How far I've run
And all the tales I've spun
Lying to the boy who's never
Held his father's gun
In the mornings I wake
At the bottom of a lake
Which I've barely learned to float in
But I've never ceased to hate
Where did I go?
I'm lost in the shadow of this throne
Where did I go?
I'm lost in the pile of these bones
I'm frightened to the bone
And my God, I feel alone
But deeper than the burning
Is a life I've never known
So here I am to stand
With a line drawn in the sand
I've run away till now
But I'll never run again
Where did I go?
I'm lost in the shadow of this throne
Where did I go?
I'm lost in the pile of these bones.
