Earthbound

And the only time I'll be embraced Is entwined in the earth in my final days And I know when I go I'll see your face In my heart you'll forever have your place With your vines embedded in my skin It's an uphill fight that I just can't win And for us to be known would be a sin But it hurts to know that I'm just your friend Forget my pain, it just takes time I'll take your pain and I'll make it mine My love for you it can't be beat I'll make your hurt my last defeat I'll break myself off piece by piece So you can keep a piece of me To hold onto, a memory As I remember you so fondly I'll let myself rot in this earth Nobody knew what I was worth Not even me, a poor fool blind Thought I was worthy to walk mankind
