    Story Behind the Song
    this was written after a brief spell of pneumonia for a falied marraige.

    Lyrics
    Left only with my sickness
    I struggle on and on
    And seek for a purpose under the sun
    I could give into my whims
    I could light up again
    Or, I could try and finish what I never begun

    But, for now I will sit
    In a bombed-out, empty tent
    That used to be the place that I am from
    To remind me of the days
    That she took away
    And all the days we both spent on the run

    Who is there to divide and conquer now?
    Who is there to divide and conquer…

    Our life was hypothetical
    It seemed all too neglectable
    Was I supposed to know this long ago?
    The waiting I went through
    And all the places she went to
    Never prepared me for what she had to unload

    And the reasons she had
    Were founded by her friends
    She only relayed them to me, as far as I can tell
    I am just a leaf, she said
    A November one at that
    And she was the tree from which I fell

    Who is there to fall in disgrace now?
    Who is there to fall in disgrace…

    All the thoughts inside my head
    Could never have been read
    But I wish she would’ve tried, sometimes
    Because, if she would’ve seen
    What I could never be
    She would have quit this long before I had the chance to try

    Who is there to die with honor now?
    Who is there to die with honor…
