It started like a forest fire
Held us in the grip of desire
Burned out too soon

Never crossed my mind that I could loose you
I turned my back

You disappeared from sight


Don't wanna be your latest mistake
Don't wanna be the next heart to break
Don't
wanna wake
up wishing it all away


God knows what a fool I've been
Trusted my heart with a dream
Fell back so hard

Should've seen it right from the start
I was standing tall
And now I'm on my knees

I have tried -
I still try

To make it seem like rainbows and silver linings
I still read -
I still write
Into magazines
Does anyone listen - anyone


Cause it's like
Nobody can hear the crying through the walls
Cause nobody answers
And I'm like
Am I the only person breathing in the air
Does nobody else care


I have tried -
I have made
Multicoloured pictures of our lives
We've seen some times - like the day

Those waterfalls were falling before our eyes
Does anyone see - anyone

If you find yourself in need of someone's hand
To hold on - to hold onto
If you find yourself in trouble with your mind
Be strong - be stronger

Hey stranger will you come with me tonight
When we pillow talk we'll know if it's right
Hey stranger will you give it a try
We might find that we can dig beneath the ice

If you wonder when your life is set to start
Be calm - go easy
If you're good to me then everything will fall

In place - in time
