Unmoored - Milestone

[1.]
Your final departure
& still you're so strong
Rejecting the only thing
That would keep you from end up gone
Oh God, this cannot come to pass
Not now, not this way!
How I wish I could keep you from sliding
Into decay

[Chorus:]
& so you bid us farewell
Setting along with the sun
Crowned with the courage of despair
Leaving creation behind
Your will is drawn to a close
& so is your self-reliance
For that, you're taking your leave
Rising above defiance

[2.] I've tried putting myself in your place
I've tried to imagine what it must be like
But all that it comes to is nothing but fear
Fear of hat I'd have to fight

[3.]
With a look full of pity
I sense your dismay
How I wish I could keep you from sliding
Into decay

[Repeat Chorus]
[Repeat 1.]

[4.]
The thought of never seeing you
Again is scaring me
Why does it have to end like this?
I will preserve the memory of you eternally
In my mind you will exist – forever!
