I was done
I was taken by surprise
Blindsided again
Like a slap against my wrist
I could run way before I learned to walk
Now I'm crawling home on my knees in the dark
Can't explain why things just happen
Can't explain why sorrow gets me down
In a heartbeat, down in a flash
Going down fast like an aeroplane
Crash into me at the speed of light
You know I want you here tonight
Wake me up
Come and wash this day away
I could use a break
Please don't leave me here alone
All I see are the ashes of my youth
When did we grow up? Why did we get stuck?
Can't explain why things just happen
Can't explain why sorrow gets me down
In a heartbeat, down in a flash
Going down fast like an aeroplane
Crash into me at the speed of light
Crash into me with the force of thunder
This is the way we learn to fly
You know I want you
So let's burn, burn, burn
Everything, everything
Want to burn, burn, burn
And start out from scratch again
If we burn, burn, burn
Everything, everything
Everything we've ever been
Can't explain why things just happen
Can't explain why sorrow gets me down
In a heartbeat, down in a flash
Going down fast like an aeroplane
Crash into me at the speed of light
Crash into me with the force of thunder
This is the way we learn to fly
You know I want you here tonight
I want you here tonight
