"Guard" lyrics

You might just say

The last gasp that you attempted
Your brittle life left a darker soul
A bright, burning hope that reflects from afar
So count all your blessings before they burn out like the stars

And if you beg, you might come back
From the brightest hell
But only time will tell, so

Guard your heart, while it freely declines
Our end is open and it's leaving you behind

And so you say

You lost me at your rate of dissention
A little more than a passing light
I wish you could hear what the world whispers to me
It tears me wide open and pours me out into the night

And if you heard, you might step back
With a hope that's instilled
That only a life could kill, so

Guard your heart, while it freely declines
Our end is open and it's leaving you behind
And mark my words, they're free to decide
Your end is open and I'm leaving you behind

And I wait for you
Where the sun comes out
We can see the lights impact
I never wanted it all, not a thing from you
So tell me all of it
Tell me all now, tell me all out loud

Guard your heart, while it freely declines
Our end is open and it's leaving you behind
And mark my words, they're free to decide
Your end is open and I'm leaving you behind

I'm leaving you behind!
