Lyrics (preview):

Verse:
Promises made but I lost.
Someone beside me.
I wish I had something to say.
But I was all mute.

Life goes on.
That's all that people say.
But I won't go nowhere.
Till' I have somewhere to stay.

Bridge:
It's like a bad dream.
Coming true.
It's like a bad dream.
Made only for you.

Chorus:
You say it's time to move on.
From the time that's all gone.
Oh, it's time to let go.
Be the star of your show.

You find a way leading straight to home.
Don't wanna stay here no more.

I wanna go home.
I wanna climb the tree.
That I used to fall down from.
I wanna go home.
I wanna find the stone.
That we buried by the hill.

You're not so used to compassion.

Yet run away when it gets serious.
You say you love me, then you leave me.
Make up your mind or never see me.

Pow Pow.
You got me with your love.
Gulp Gulp.
You drown me in the tub.
You take me up and you dry me up.
And then you choke me.
Till' I black out.

I wrote a song for you.
You made me lose my ground.
I was unprepared.

As I hear your steps.
On the old wooden floor.
The sound is fading out.
As we're walking though the door.

Now if you feel fine.
I will feel fine too.
You say the world is small.
And we'll follow though.

Chorus:
If I had a choice.
I would stay right here.
And listen to you talk profound and wise.
If I had a choice.
I would freeze the time.
To make sure to save tonight.

All alone on the sandy shore.

Close your eyes and dream away.
Find a place where you feel you belong.
Take my hand, I'll guide you there.
Don't be afraid, I'll stay if you want me to.

Chorus:
Fighting with your inner storms.
Don't let toxic people pull you down.
Life is short and time is fast.
Don't go waste it, let go of your broken past.

Walk upright in a steady speed.
Go ahead now find your street.
Look around maybe we will meet.
Until then do what ever you need to do.

How I'm living my life.

I don't doubt you love me.
As you say you do.
But I'm a little bored.
Of staying this faithful.

The grass is greener.
On the other side.
And frankly all your songs.
Burnt well on the fire.

Chorus:
I know I'm harsh.
But this is who I am.
A fire burns.
Until a new one starts.

No I won't lie
This is who I am.
A fire burns.
