Black Gold

So long to the chase
I've given my gold
Goodbye to my lives
I've thrown suit

I've come and gone
Alone
Forget my love
My future has passed

I've left you alone to suffer and burn away
Forever a void to completely erase
I'm sure you couldn't make me suffocate

Pull apart these calloused and splintered spines
Spill these nerves out into the cold, dead night
A splintered loss of this sharpened remorse
A tattered case of this sharpened fatigue
A feathered mask of your statue's grace

Burn
Forget the ones I once, I once forgot
