Leave Nothing Behind Lyrics - Black Swamp Water

You need to always move on 

Keep your eyes on the road 

Towards the setting sun 

On and on you go 

You feel the weight behind you 

That you have to ignore 

So much life to remind you 

Of what you had before 

Leave the past behind 

Leave nothing to find 

Keep your records clean 

And embrace this new scene 

A clean slate for you, my friend 

A fresh start all over again 

Today you're new, tomorrow too 

Leave nothing behind 

And in the wake behind you 

All the horrors and pain 

All friend and foe alike 

That you'll never see again 

And so your freedom will cost you 

And it doesn't come cheap 

There's no denying that what you sow 

Is surely what you will reap
