lyrics

Left another piece but i’ve never been whole
If it’s not coming around that's just the way that it goes but
I shoulda left it all with you

Took out by 11 thinking thinking now is the time
Leading me back with those champagne eyes and
Was that really all there is?

You say that you won’t even listen
And I know you’re too tired to try
To change your mind

Meet me on the way we can undo the ties
Grow a little older while you’re drawing the lines and
We’ll just leave it where it lyes

When I was giving it a chance no not the choice
To take or leave it in a shaky voice saying
You’ve still got a lot to learn

You say that you won’t even listen
And I know you’re too tired to try
To change your mind

We say we’re holding on for something
But you know I’ve gone too far and away
To take my blame
It’s a just little sip of something still keeping me blind

Burning brighter when it’s burning out
Against the wall hands on my mouth
Burning brighter when it’s burning out

Burning brighter when it’s burning out
Against the wall hands on my mouth
Burning brighter when it’s burning out

Burning brighter when it’s burning out
Against the wall hands on my mouth
Burning brighter when it’s burning out

You say that you won’t even listen
And I know that you’re too tired
To change your mind
It’s a just little sip of something still keeping me blind

You say that you won’t even listen
And I know that you’re too tired to try
To change your mind

We say we’re holding on for something
But you know I’ve gone too far and away
To take my blame
It’s a just little sip of something still keeping me blind
