|
You called it no mans land |
|
With machine guns blasting to hell |
|
I let my guard down and carried my heart so far away |
|
And in a letter sent, that I don't want to be here any more then them |
|
I'm sipping on coffee gone stale again |
|
Is this how it tastes to mix drinks with sour grapes? |
|
So kiss me before its over if only for a minute |
|
We can argue who was first to bleed |
|
Or let the walls do the talking |
|
But in the middle of the night |
|
I lay frozen in a memory of us down by a river |
|
With your hand clenched into mine |
|
Well I still remember all the promises we swore we'd never outlive |
|
Please tell me you remember forever friends |
|
Cause in the red light I'm singing all alone |
|
As I watched my favorite dream fall from grace to stone |
|
Hiding in the basement we kept our voices low |
|
You gave me that old troubled look that said "I don't know" |
|
Hold onto twilight the sun brings empire |
|
We are the last fight we are the fire |
|
Cause just like your mother said |
|
Your too pretty and young for this |
|
You'll make it better on the outside |
|
Just keep your head and keep your fire. |
