Burn After Reading - Circus Maximus

When did it come to this

These drained emotions

I feel guilty for not being inspired

I can see you reaching out to me

But I leave you floating

After I am free of you

I should be missing what we had

In loving memory

To whom do I turn for a new beginning

All alone until the end Whom do I trust

With this task of solace

(In loving memory)

I have lost the power to feel

Turned to stone

My heart blackened

I should have seen what was good

Not been so easily blinded

All that glitters isn’t gold

Every shimmering rock I’ve collected

Kept weighing me down

Pulling me to the ground

All that I have left of us is a memory

A picture of you and me

Have I forsaken my destiny

I have lost the power to feel

Turned to stone

My heart is bleeding

I should have seen what was good

Not been so easily blinded

All that glitters isn’t gold

Every shimmering rock I’ve collected

Kept weighing me down

Pulling me to the ground

All that I have left of us is a memory

A picture of you and me

Have I forsaken my destiny
