lyrics
Slow lit fire
Left with no desire to wake up
And not for nothing,
But I've got this monster held inside
And now it's time I come alive and drown it out
My haunted soul is a sign of who I've become
Well it haunts, and it takes, and it knows I'm aware of it's hold
But I feel the way I did before
Before we lived this way, Sat at this bar all alone
With my life suspended in the shadows
Well if it finds a way
Believe it will take you down and run you out
No conscience, no reason for bleeding you dry
But still, you always let it in
Well if you only knew that you held the key to the door that let this hell through
Would you throw the key into the flames that used to burn between our eyes, and fuel it for one more night?
In a bed with blankets of addiction, we can take shelter away from all we knew
We could feel the way we did before, before we lived this way
Her life suspended in the shadows
Well if it finds a way
Believe it will take you down and run you out
No conscience, no reason for bleeding you dry
But still, you always let it in
Do you want to escape?
It can be our escape
I can't wake us up this time
But I won't let you go
Do you want to escape?
