Take back the roses,
take back the letters,
im sleeping alone and it holds me much better.
Turn back the pages,
the poems to the dead,
im dreaming too high up and falling instead.
Almost on top of the world and we'd fallen,
we could have been saved with the effort you promised, followed you words from the letters you'd send,
the last on my nightstand im leaving unread.
As it fades i can hear as the window breaks,
these consequences never seemed so grave,
here it comes im the one with the broken heart,
my inspiration never seemed so alive.
Why walk away when you always turn back,
she's hurt me before but im smarter than that,
i've lost the key to that glow in your eyes,
im all by myself and that's fine.
It's a call to the keepers of the light,
the weak need not apply,
glory fades when courage dies,
here it comes im the one with the loaded gun,
im not afraid to make this fun,
shoulda known it when you saw it in my eyes.
(I can't take this back)
Dear Caidence, im sorry,
but i have to say goodbye
This breaks my heart,
and i hate to see you cry
Now in the darkness,
the candle we lit,
Barely still burning and begging for wind,
i'll prove that im stronger, now after i've died,
and i'll put out the candle and force it aside.
