This time I finally need a light, a light Tired of seeing in black and white, white Having flashes in my mind Can’t take the ticking of time The time that’s passing by Just an outline made of skin And my walls are paper thin I want to let you color me in

The ashes that fall one more time Mourn the past and all that once shined The stones that gather left forever damned The absence of what was and what one can't understand The undertow that drags as you lose another day The voice that brought you peace

And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45 Swimming through the ashes of another life No real reason to accept the way things have changed Staring down the barrel of a 45 What ever happened to the young man's heart? Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell

Just leave me be Why you just leave me It's like moving mountains Hey But I keep climbing and hoping things would change And the sky turns gray, and the water from the rain washes progress away Just leave me Just leave me be, oh But it's like moving

And I'm staring down the barrel of a 45 Swimming through the ashes of another life No real reason to accept the way things have changed Staring down the barrel of a 45 What ever happened to the young man's heart? Swallowed by pain, as he slowly fell

I'm burned to ashes, split down the middle If anyone asks it hurt just a little I died inside the day I let you go I'm inside out, shot through the center Feel the scar of where you entered Took my life and turned it upside down But I will never let you

They're all coming down It's all coming 'round Your bridges are burning now Gathering the ashes You're burning them down Whatever keeps you warm at night (whatever keeps you warm at night) Whatever keeps you warm inside Everything thrown away Scatter as

Pull me out of the train wreck Pull me out, pull me out, pull me out Unbreak the broken Unburn the ashes Unchain the reactions, I'm not ready to die, not yet Unsay these spoken words Find hope in the hopeless Laying in the silence Waiting for the sirens

Outside looking in, my heart lied I gave you everything, everything but blood Everything I had, and everything I've loved You tore away and left me dead inside Another chapter in my life The sun has set, only ashes left behind It turns out I was always

The way that that summer's just burning my mind It flashes on back so fast, oh The sun don't go, sun don't go down on that On top of the world The edge of a cliff Hands hanging on heaven, I remember the second I tasted your lips Sun don't go down on
