LYRICS:

Just leave me alone
Now that the war's begun
I'm a statue made of ice
And you left me in the sun

And at my back
I always hear
Time's winged chariot
Hurrying near

Don't ask more of me
Than to learn to let go
Of my family
And the place that I call home

Just because I accept
Doesn't mean I understand
Why you gave us everything
And made us build it all on sand

I don't know if you're listening
Or if you're even there
Just show me that I matter
Show me that you care

Don't ask more of me
Than to learn to let go
Of my family
And the place that I call home
Don't ask more of me
Than what my spirit owns
The altar and the sea
Are both the deep unknown

Those I’ve lost
Are they still here or gone
On and on
On and on we go

Nothing’s ever answered
Nothing’s ever known
Are we on
Are we on our own

Do you even ask for
The things done in your name
Suffering and self-inflicted shame

Why would you decide on
Imperfect destiny?
And I will give you everything
Just don’t ask more of me

I will give you everything
Just don’t ask more of me
