Choked out by bleeding hands as I kiss the lips Of a new romance When it all goes wrong, it just feels so right I watch this world as it watches me In complicated simplicity Stumble through the dark to run through the light Folded arms tell a thousand words But I don’t hear one that I deserve Free from your mind stuck to your tongue Close the book and I’m moving on It’s easy to admit the path is gone When standing alone means no more pain There’s no more ways to drive yourself insane No, No, No
[Chorus:] Will it burn long enough To make a mockery out of the things we trust? I needed you to remind me of the things I shouldn’t do You like to kick me when I was down, I’ve got a habit of turning around I’ve got a thicker skin, I’ve got scars to prove every fight I’m in Take my hand and we’ll walk this line To a place that I was forced to spend my time Trying to figure out the different between dreams and nightmares And every spirits shackled to the ground Makes us want to burn this place down
[Chorus]
I know things have changed but more has stayed the same But I’m not complaining Why do we give our souls to those who don’t have their own? So burn like the last fading star, I’m busy rebuilding my heart So I can give it to the angel who ripped off her halo Burn, burn, burn.
