lyrics

These boards
They've come undone
Retrace my steps
To find my way back
To square one
Just close your eyes,
And pray your feet don't fail you

With our defenses down
And nothing left but time
My bones eluding me,
I've given up this time again
What can save me now?
These years flying by
Leaving me on my knees
With no room to breathe

The air above crushing me down
Full with the voices of my past
Telling me "Don't look back,
It never lasts
Don't look back
It never lasts
Don't look back
You can't take this back"

And when we're gone
(Nothing, ashes)
I hope they find this
To explain anything I've missed
I miss this life I called my own
Blame me for anything done wrong
I just wish you were there when I came home
I may have chose this
But I can't do it alone

What can we do
To put this back in place
I won't forget my mistakes

And I'll continue to stand strong alone,
But without you, it won't be the same.
