Turn my back on everything...
Never look behind me...
Leave all the bad.
And you could just walk away from the death notice you hand out.
Can you fall asleep now?
After so many years?
What will your nightmares bring.
Faces and places that will hurt you.
And you realize...
Why you never went there in the first place.
Light a candle and say a prayer.
For this memory.
Lost in time.
Behind glass frames.
A rose on a gravestone...
A gravestone in our minds.
The only red in a black and white world.
Searching for the miracle in a cereal box.
Light a candle, say a prayer.
Fall asleep on the bathroom floor...
I got here... but I'm not sure how.
The sounds of I hate you... ring the clearest.
And I'm spinning and I'm turning out of control...
As I walk away from it all.

I could just keep walking...
Turn my back on everything...
Never look behind me...
Leave all the bad.
And you could just walk away from the death notice you hand out.
Can you fall asleep now?
After so many years?
What will your nightmares bring.
Faces and places that will hurt you.
And you realize...
Why you never went there in the first place.
Light a candle and say a prayer.
For this memory.
Lost in time.
Behind glass frames.
A rose on a gravestone...
A gravestone in our minds.
The only red in a black and white world.
Searching for the miracle in a cereal box.
Light a candle, say a prayer.
Fall asleep on the bathroom floor...
I got here... but I'm not sure how.
The sounds of I hate you... ring the clearest.
And I'm spinning and I'm turning out of control...
As I walk away from it all.
