lyrics

Oh ... the sudden warmth to the vein,
The calm, from such an ugly disease,
But where, where to go to numb the pain,
A pricks the only way, to chase away the gray,
And prove, prove that I’m still here ...

Oh ... for now the sorrow is gone,
But the sting, the sting of rejection lives on,
Sitting high, high above the city lights,
Yet how naive were we, believing this is the break we need,
To prove, to prove that were are here ...

Now there is nothing left, but finding ways to forget,
Our stained memories, time refuses to fade,
They say to sing halleluiah and ask to be saved,
But there’s no comfort in the counsel, only skeletons that are raised ...

Oh ... oh how the scars grow deep, coming down,
I fear drifting off to sleep,
I cannot, cannot escape all of the dreams, that relieve the day,
I stood upon the stage, and proved, proved that I was here ...

Now there is nothing left, but finding ways to forget,
Our stained memories, time refuses to fade,
They say to sing halleluiah and ask to be saved,
But there’s no comfort in the counsel, only skeletons that are raised ...

Oh ... how close we came to the stars,
Just a face, face among crowds of no ones,
Tell me, we were here, we were here, we were here ...

But then-there's someone onstage and he's commanding your attention
