Forsaken Lyrics by As I Lay Dying

An Ocean Between Us

2007

[Verse 1: Tim Lambesis]
I've looked straight into your eyes
And turned my head for the last time
Because I was scared
To leave these walls in ruin like
The fate of those who trust
In themselves, we are
Alone and afraid
[Chorus: Josh Gilbert]
I know you are the one we've left behind
Yet somehow we are the ones who are alone
You're the one we've left behind
You're the one we've left be-
[Post-Chorus 1: Tim Lambesis]
I will no longer turn my head
I will never forget you
You are the one we've left behind
You are the forsaken
[Verse 2: Tim Lambesis]
We've built our confidence
On broken dreams now left for dead
Yet we've been condemned (Yet we've been condemned)
To chase these dreams that never end
[Chorus: Josh Gilbert]
I know you are the one we've left behind
Yet somehow we are the ones who are alone
You're the one we've left behind
You're the one we've left be-
[Post-Chorus 2: Tim Lambesis]
I will no longer turn my head
I will never forget you
You are the one we've left behind
You are the forsaken
I will (I will) no longer turn my head
I will (I will) never forget you
You are (You are) the one we've left behind
You are (You are) the forsaken
[Bridge: Josh Gilbert]
Our selfishness consumes us until the whole world
Is not enough, forgive the day that I erased
That I erased your name, that I erased your name
For it's the memory of me that will decay
[Outro: Josh Gilbert & Tim Lambesis]
I know you are (the forsaken)
Somehow we are (the ones who feel alone)
I know you are (the forsaken)
Somehow we are (the ones who feel alone)
