I was done I was taken by surprise Blindsided again Like a slap against my wrist I could run way before I learned to walk Now I’m crawling home on my knees in the dark
Can’t explain why things just happen Can’t explain why sorrow gets me down In a heartbeat, down in a flash Going down fast like an aeroplane Crash into me at the speed of light You know I want you here tonight
Wake me up Come and wash this day away I could use a break Please don’t leave me here alone All I see are the ashes of my youth When did we grow up? Why did we get stuck?
Can’t explain why things just happen Can’t explain why sorrow gets me down In a heartbeat, down in a flash Going down fast like an aeroplane Crash into me at the speed of light Crash into me with the force of thunder This is the way we learn to fly You know I want you
So let’s burn, burn, burn Everything, everything Want to burn, burn, burn And start out from scratch again If we burn, burn, burn Everything, everything Everything we’ve ever been
Can’t explain why things just happen Can’t explain why sorrow gets me down In a heartbeat, down in a flash Going down fast like an aeroplane Crash into me at the speed of light Crash into me with the force of thunder This is the way we learn to fly You know I want you here tonight I want you here tonight
