The scars of a dream

Take me back to where you leave

Where these waxen feathers

Can't hold me together

But somehow you stay clean



If asked when we began

If I knew how the world would spin

I would never discover

What life would uncover

Until the story's end



So take your time

Take your lies

And hold them closely

The truth will find

Its way tonight

Though you never would believe it



Tear me away from everything we've done

I guess that my wings have taken me too close to your sun

Twist every word to make them what you need

But if you must walk alone

Don't come running back to me

(Back to me.)



A star burning bright

And with the world I watched you shine

Taking what was gathered

You distorted and shattered

Turning beauty into lies



Some may say

What's gone today

Returns tomorrow

But I believe

We'll never see

All that we were really made for



Tear me away from everything we've done

I guess that my wings have taken me too close to your sun

Twist every word to make them what you need

But if you must walk alone

Don't come running back to me

(Back to me.)

Yeah, yeah

Yeah



(Back to me.)
