lyrics

Look in my eyes see my imperfection once again.
Here comes the tide of your source that could have been.
Second hand turning while I will call you on your raise.
Our bridges are burning as you let that match burn for days.
You’re using my faith to play your own damn games.
Well, I will not have that.
I’m going back to where I would be at now.
You ask me how.
Tried by my peers. Reality, show me there.
Euphoric fears of taking over and breathing all of my air.
When the dust settles I’m the only one standing here.
A blank label is what they put on my back for years.
Assignment of blame. I called you up the next day,
but you were not there and I should have waited for you say.
And you will say: “Goodbye.”
