Take me back to days when A nervous wreck was someone I hadn't met 'cause I just Wasn't there yet But here I am, a broken man Trying to fix myself again I never thought I could let you in But then you save me (and I can't forget) I can barely feel the pain when I'm staring at you Every time my life explodes You're the perfect afterglow I can barely feel the pain when I'm staring at you Every time my life explodes You're the perfect afterglow ♪ I'm a father and I, I am a son But I don't know how to tell them that I I've come undone I paint it black, torn in half It feels like I'm under attack It can't get worse when it hurts this bad But then you save me (and I can't forget) I can barely feel the pain when I'm staring at you Every time my life explodes You're the perfect afterglow I can barely feel the pain when I'm staring at you Every time my life explodes You're the perfect afterglow ♪ Cut it off ♪ I can barely feel the pain when I'm staring at you Every time my life explodes You're the perfect afterglow I can barely feel the pain when I'm staring at you Every time my life explodes You're the perfect afterglow
