Oh I want you over and over again,
We are young,
We are alive.
This is another night,
Another night we are together in our minds.
And our hearts are entwined,
We are young,
And I am alive,
Because you are mine.
All because you are mine.

Girl I'll show you my nightmare,
My shattered dreams end without you,
And yet I'm still alive.

Girl I'll show you a nightmare,
A world where you don't care,
Where your heart was never mine,
Where we're lost again in time.

And Girl I'll show you a dream,
Where your heart is mine.
And my life begins with you,
Time after time.

You know,
Scarlet eyes bring me home.
Muddy fingertips and ****** fears,
Jokes laughed about from long past years.

Torn apart from legs and lace,
We've all seem to have forgotten our place.
Where did all my friends go tonight?
A sweet taste and bitter sight.

But you've all forgotten,
What it's like to forgive and forget.
I've lost myself,
In pages cold and steel hard wit.

Where did you go,
When did you leave?
Hold your breath,
You can no longer breathe.

Forgive and forget,
It's what friends do.
But you've all gone mad,
And can't remember what's true.

Rumors lost and friends misplaced,
I've lost you all in this rotting place.
Now all I've got is memories,
And a chemical taste.

Tell me it's the air you breathe,
That's got me hooked like this,
Tell me I've stopped my lungs,
And detoxed from the air I missed.
Now life keeps coming my way,
Another night, another ******* day.
Long drives and headlights,
Just for a fix,
Baby tell me it's just the ******* air I miss.

A single flower,
In a harvest moon.
So beautiful,
Yet so Alone.
Surrounded by many,
Yet so fine.
If I pick her,
Might she be mine?

I can hear the rain,
As it drips through the pane.
I know I'll feel better at the window,
Hoping a breeze will take me away.

But all I hear is,
I don't love you,
I don't love you like I did him.
I don't love you,

(I love you like you love him)

Can we still dream,
Frozen nights, but I'm still warm,
With you by my side.
Running laughter, through pouring rain.

And I can eat your heart out,
When he no longer speaks your name.

But all I hear is,
I don't love you,
I don't love you like I did him.
I don't love you,

(I love you like you love him)

All I hear is,
He doesn't love me,
He doesn't love me like before.
He doesn't love me,

(I could love you like he never could)


I could love you,
Til the stars burn red.
I will love you,
Til I am dead.

(I love you.
I love you like he never did.
But now there's nothing left of us,
But my broken heart and your lace,
I wish I left something more than scratches,
Etched into your skin.)

She awakes from twisted dreams,
To find love nestled,
Between crossing streams.

These skies break open,
And spill over me.
Like diamonds to the sun,
Forever they breathe.

They spin like gems,
Floating over broken glass.
I lay motionless in white,
Watching you slowly pass.
(Just smile for me)

And I feel like we could be,
Could be heroes if we set our minds to the goal,
Just stay with me and scream one, two, three,
Here we go!
(We could be heroes in the end)

If the end is just a tunnel,
With a light running above.
I feel like I’ll be failing,
To open the letter sealed with your love.
(Could you please just smile for me?)

And as I lie on broken glass,
An inch above the shard,
I feel myself floating,
And digging my grave in your backyard.
Because Seattle was never the place,
For a boy like me.
Another shot of morphine,
And I’ll be floating free.

We could be heroes in the end,
If the days would only die.
And the stars could split beside the moon and sun,
And you could fall from the sky.
