The Trace of Things That Have No Words - Blaze Bayley

Forsaking every other thing

Leaving uncertainties behind

From the loneliness and the dark

I came into your light

No more sadness surrounding me My heart is beating its last beat

As I am breathing my last breath

For what I could not live without

Has gone and will not come again

Surrounded by sadness

The Trace of Things That Have No Words

Nothing can numb this pain, nothing can fill this void

Nothing can heal this wound, nothing can hide this scar

Nothing is what I have, nothing is all that’s left

Nothing is what I am, if I am without you

Looking down at my feet, why do they move at all?

Looking down at my hands, why do they work at all?

I hear the words I speak, why can I speak at all?

If I can’t speak to you, why can I speak at all?

I won’t give up this pain, the pain of what I lost

I don’t want to be healed, why do they even try?

Pain is all I have left to tell me this was real

Pain is the only thing left I can feel

My scars I show yo know, my scars

They prove my life was real, my scars

Here on my face, here on my arms

Lines from a play, you were the star

You see them now, you see my truth

The way I lived, I lived for you

These scars proved my life was real

Now you can see my face, now you can hear my words

Now can you understand how I traced out my world?

Why must I face this life?

Why am I here alone?

Where did the future go?

Why am I here alone?

My scars I show yo know, my scars

They prove my life was real, my scars

Here on my face, here on my arms

Lines from a play, you were the star

You see them now, you see my truth

The way I lived, I lived for you

These scars proved my life was real
