Lyrics

Sink your teeth in
I'm afraid it's coming down to this
You better make it stick
An everlasting kiss, pressed to your lips
Long drives and late nights
Twenty-four and I'm out for blood once more
This is a testament to love, let's sin
For who we are within
Wake up in time
To start your life, don't throw it away
'Cause in time the scars
Will slowly turn to gray
Wake up in time
To start your life, don't throw it away
'Cause in time the scars
Will slowly turn to gray
It was three o'clock
And you were packing your bags
I saw from the sidewalk
Looks like you're gone today and never coming back
She says, you'll never know
How much we've grown
If moving on is moving up is moving out
I'll see you around
Wake up in time
To start your life, don't throw it away
'Cause in time the scars
Will slowly turn to gray
Wake up in time
To start your life, don't throw it away
'Cause in time the scars
Will slowly turn to gray
I'll take the blame to myself
Because it was me and no one else
Who poured that salt into your wounds
I never thought you'd run away
At least not to him I'll pray
Just for the day I won't lay down
My debt's been paid
Wake up in time
To start your life, don't throw it away
'Cause in time the scars
Will slowly turn to gray
Wake up in time
To start your life, don't throw it away
'Cause in time the scars
Will slowly turn to gray
Let go, let go
I never said I lost control
Let go, let go
I never said I lost control
