Don't Leave

As I walk these empty shores,
I recall when they last buzzed.
When racket filled the busy stores
and now there's naught but dust. 

Now I know
that this isn’t what you need,
if I’m a burden, then I’ll leave 
but please, 
don’t you let me 
lie alone,
turning warm love into stone!
Don’t you let me!
Don’t you let me!
Don’t you let me fade away... 

What'd you see?
Why'd you run?! 
Why've you left me here undone,
can you save me now?! 
Call your name!
There's no sound!
I'm still waiting to be found
can you save me now?! 
Can you save me
one last time? 

Free me from this barren place, 
this frigid broken moment! 
Lead me to your warm embrace 
and just let me seek atonement. 

I don’t know
if I’m able to release 
I feel empty on my knees
So please 
don’t you let me
linger cold
looking for a hand to hold! 
Don’t you leave me!
Don’t you leave me!
Because I’m still afraid...

What'd you see?
Why'd you run?! 
Why've you left me here undone
can you save me now?! 
Call your name
there's no sound
I'm still waiting to be found
Can you save me now?! 
Can you save me
one last time? 

Try to break 
like I have so many times before
but it takes
too much just to get off the floor! 
I miss the stars, I miss the sky
Im counting my scars
And I’m wondering why 
Why 
Why 

Why’d you leave!?
Where’s your love?! 
I can’t believe
that you’d just up
and deceive me now! 
Where’s the light?!
Where’s the day?
Won’t you linger?!
can’t you stay 
and relieve me now!? 
There’s no hope!
There’s no fight! 
I’ve no rope 
to hold on tight! 
Please don’t leave me now! 
Don’t leave me now…

Don’t leave…

Become The Flame

By Steven Mailer

View lyric

The world is run on lies, deceit, manipulation and gambits. Lives are traded like pawns in a global chess game, impossible tyrants burning for control. This song likens global politics behind the scenes to a massive chess game with impossible stakes where we the people are at a constant disadvantage.
