Lyrics

You thought I was holy

You believed I was virtuous and pure

And when you would would breathe I filled your lungs

My presence was essential for your well-being

You tried to console me

You attempted to comfort me

Even when I held that smoking gun

Even when I was clearly responsible for wrongdoing


Thought that you were crazy when you would say

You seemed irrational when asserting

That I was the only one

That I was your sole love

Thought that you were crazy when you would show

You appeared crazy when expressing

A love I’ve never known

An unfamiliar kind of love


I could not find a way to keep the earth beneath your feet

I couldn't maintain stability in our relationship

So I fight away memories that I deserve to lose

So I try to suppress memories that I should let go

But I’ll leave those footprints every time

But I'll consistently leave traces of my existence

I’ll leave those footprints every time

I'll consistently leave traces of my existence

To lead you back to my arms

To guide you back into my embrace


I know that I’m lonely

I acknowledge my solitude

Ever since you walked out that door

Since you departed, self-loathing intensifies

There’s nothing to keep me from hating myself

Nothing prevents me from despising myself

Worse than I’ve ever did before

More than ever before


Thought that you were crazy when you would say

You seemed irrational when declaring

That I’ve lost your trust

That I've lost your trust

Thought that you were crazy when you did say

You appeared crazy when stating

I finally had enough

I've reached my limit


I could not find a way to keep the earth beneath your feet

I couldn't maintain stability in our relationship

So I fight away memories that I deserve to lose

So I try to suppress memories that I should let go

But I’ll leave those footprints every time (I will, I will, I will)

But I'll consistently leave traces (I will, I will, I will)

I’ll leave those footprints every time

I'll consistently leave traces of my existence

To lead you back to my arms

To guide you back into my embrace


My regret is blood red and its staining my broken bones

My remorse is vivid red, marking my shattered bones

My regret is pitch black consuming everything I know

My remorse is intense, engulfing everything I know

My regret is blood red and its staining my broken bones

My remorse is vivid red, marking my shattered bones

My regret is pitch black and it's taking over my soul

My remorse is intense, taking control of my soul


I could not find a way to keep the earth beneath your feet

I couldn't maintain stability in our relationship

So I fight away memories that I deserve to lose

So I try to suppress memories that I should let go

I’ll leave those footprints every time

I'll consistently leave traces of my existence

I’ll leave those footprints every time (time, time)

I'll consistently leave traces of my existence (time, time)

I’ll leave those footprints every time (I will, I will, I will)

I'll consistently leave traces (I will, I will, I will)

I’ll leave those footprints every time

I'll consistently leave traces of my existence

To lead you back to my arms

To guide you back into my embrace
