why are you trying so hard to get back the one thing
you didn't want from the start and why are you trying 
so hard
to get back to the one place you've been running from

ideas and theories
the things we ascribe to you
the beauty the passion
the hope that was never true
you pray in the end that you learn what
you-äre needing to this life is a circle
run where it is leading to

she cries again
he blames the flame within
it's all the same
watch them repeat the game

I will keep trying this hard
I will bring back the dead thing
I left cold in the dark
and I will keep going until
I face the one thing
I'm still running from

you can't see the meaning
the reason you burn this way
you question your reasons
emotions quick to betray
a throw back a whisper
a season of darker days
the mask that keeps grinning
the further you go astray

she cries again
he blames the flame within
it's all the same
watch them repeat the game
my lovely friend
the last heart to defend
iterates again
this vicious cycle never ends
