taken back to a day when eyes
said so much more than hollow words screamed
sometimes these stares left scars
and now our thoughts collide
at 2am our lips spark fire to the horizon
bathe these streets in gasoline, we'll dress this city in flames
words are worthless when looks can betray us
lives are broken when romance dies
sleep with photographic memories, they lay deceased

and now all i have is this gallery of faded pictures in the crimson daylight
and the garden of grey roses is still there and they smell so sweet

words are worthless when looks can betray us
lives are broken when romance dies
they hide knives in their smiles
fake apathy to avoid a broken heart

so ill write this story one last time these pages are worn some empty inside but i speak my heart, i give my word, and all i ask is for nothing in return just take me for what im worth, take me for what you see, cause i cant live without you you mean everything to me
