Excused from a second blog, but...

I know I was excused from another blog, but it just so happens we are talking about one of my favorite subjects in class, music. This is a short blog, I'm only posting lyrics and would like some feedback on them...

The song is called "Remember" by the band: Burden of a Day. It's a song I happened to stumble across out of pure chance and it has very quickly rocketed to the top of my iTunes Top 25! I recommend a listen to the song through YouTube or something, it does have screaming, but the chorus is extremely catchy and very well done.

"Remember" - Burden of a Day

They chased us to the end of the dock.
Stay with me we can outlast the night.
Just stay awake, I know we can.
I know we can make it out alive, make it out alive.

We outlasted evenings, and I barely breathed.
How couldn't I see? How couldn't I see?

Don't turn your eyes if you leave now.
You won't remember me.
You weren't meant to do this on
Your own.

No, I feel the water is calling.
The wood under our bare feet cries.
Every animal came to watch.
The first and the last to love die.

What a wretched man I am.
Who will rescue me from this body of death?

Don't turn your eyes if you leave now.
You won't remember me.
You weren't meant to do this on
Your own.

Just stay close and I'll keep you from leaving.
Just move slow and I'll keep you breathing.

They chased us to the end of the dock.
Stay with me we can outlast the night.
Just stay awake I know we can.
I know we can make it out alive, make it out alive.

Mother mercy the sea's swallowed my graceful.
I have failed you, I've been too late.

Don't turn your eyes if you leave now.
You won't remember (You won't remember).
You won't remember (Remember me).

Don't turn your eyes if you leave now.
You won't remember me.
You weren't meant to do this on
Your own. (2x)

Just stay close and I'll keep you from leaving.
Just move slow and I'll keep you breathing.
