Traitor Lyrics by Richard Buckner

0

You woke up too late, but know what they thought while you were waiting for the strangers that had gone
Somewhere to stay together/apart, where everyone traded as they faded in the dark, caught in the lights they
Couldn't show through and just beyond

They'd always known you would give it away, even as dust, falling just out of frame, leaving everything
Untouched, held and returned

Who did you cry to?

Was Someone else too close to find?

You sold what you'd saved, woke where you'd like and said what they wouldn't say to the shadows in the night
Left in your place and still lashing out, coming to life to make you finally live it down

O, watch that temper, now

Is it worth it, wasted?

How far will you get?
