LYRICS:
Do you remember sneaking softly in the room?
And we struggled to stay quiet ‘cause our friends were waking soon
And I miss the pain of being blistered by the flame
What was once a wildfire is becoming charred remains
Whoah
Is this as happy as you get?
'Cause I swear I’m trying so hard but you’re never not upset
Your eyes are red and your knees are black and blue
And now you’ve shown me your true colors but I’ve never seen so few
And lately, as embers start to fade
Sleep suddenly seems wasted
On hopeless hollow dreams, or so it seems
And maybe second thoughts have made me impatiently uneasy
‘Cause I don’t know what this means
Tell me what this means
But can’t you see the mess we made
I swept the dust up with a masquerade
Defending my insensitivity to my grave
Obvious, overexposed
And you still treat me like a ghost
Alive when you want me and all but dead when you don’t
Lately, as embers start to fade
Sleep suddenly seems wasted
On hopeless hollow dreams, or so it seems
And maybe second thoughts have made me impatiently uneasy
‘Cause I don’t know what this means
Words flow from your mouth like air through a window
You’re never good at saving your breath so why start now
(Whoah)
Is this who you want to be
A voice that lost it’s clarity
(You’re never good at saving your breath so why start now)
Words flow from your mouth like air through a window
You’re never good at saving your breath so why start now
(Whoah)
(How did this take so long to see through this disillusion)
(Is this who you want to be, want to be)
You’re never good at saving your breath so why start now
And lately, as embers start to fade
Sleep suddenly seems wasted
On hopeless hollow dreams, or so it seems
And maybe second thoughts have made me impatiently uneasy
‘Cause I don’t know what this means
(Can you tell me?)
So save me
Don’t let resentment plague me
‘Cause then we’d both make faith seem
A desperate extreme only made for silver screens
So now what does this mean?
(And this is your fault, and it destroyed me)
Just tell me what this means
(You pulled the cord on a fleeting story)
What does this really mean?
(And this is your fault, and it destroyed me)
Or does it mean a thing?
