You and I were pure just like the morning
But something went wrong, something went missing from us
I gotta find a piece of me I left buried on the shoreline
I gotta take a break from this and come back on my own time
Imagine love was clean, simple as a new born
It's not like the films it's like chemical warfare
There's gotta be a way to find something that's worth living for
I can't go day to day and lie I got something that i'd die for
I'm standing here in the mud I think i'm low enough
I gotta get back to the start to fix myself
As the curtain falls it seems so familiar
We were here before, drowning in black holes
And like times of war we make our last stand
The LZ is hot and we're moving to fast
I'm standing here in the mud I think i'm low enough
I gotta get back to the start to fix myself
We were on the edge of undefined sensations while our souls roasted on the street
I took the back road through interpretation cause I thought that's what you needed
Nobody told me you were out on your own
You were pouring your heart's dementia
Nobody told me you were out on your own
But I knew all along
