Second Thoughts

I hear the static drawing nearer, there's no way out

I breathe the ice and let the fire die

They keep on feeling me the chemicals I need to breathe

But how could something so important not belong to me?

I can't pretend like I'm the one who's going to change this

But all I know is that our time is running out

I get so tired lighting fires when I know we still have so much further left we could go

So how much longer must I wait to fill this emptiness?

I make mistakes and had my dreams slip through the cracks

I've seen such hate surround the inside of this dark abyss

But all this pain just makes me certain that there's love for me to find a brighter paths

And out of the dust I see the light creep in and I know it won't be long

But I'm still terrified, 'cause at least in the dark no one else can see who you really are

So bring me the sound of your guns and blame me for all of your wrongs

It seems hate is all I have left

Yeah, it's all I have left, it's the only thing that's left in me

I get so tired lighting fires when I know we still have so much further effort to go

So how much longer must I wait to fill this emptiness?

I make mistakes and had my dreams slip through the cracks

I've seen such hate surround the inside of this dark abyss

But all this pain just makes me certain that there's love for me to find a brighter paths

So when you feel like you're falling under

Holding on to the things you thought you loved

Will you let all the things you've run from

Chew you up and spit you out?

This all ends now!

I get so tired lighting fires when I know we still have so much further left we could go

I get so tired lighting fires when I know we still have so much further left we could go

So how much longer must I wait to fill this emptiness?

I make mistakes and had my dreams slip through the cracks

I've seen such hate surround the inside of this dark abyss

But all this pain just makes me certain that there's love for me to find a brighter paths

Find a brighter paths

Don't be scared, we'll see the lights go out
