Some people don’t even seem to care
It’s like their lives are just so fair
Need to open up my mind
But in the end it’s a waste of time
It’s like putting a pin to the wall
Marking another fault
I should neglect the nearby line
Misunderstood the given life
Yea-yeah, you keep me alive
Opening up for, something inside
Yea-yeah, wondering why
You’ve wasted your time,
... on something like my life
Don’t need more reasons to hang on
Still forever seems so long
I’ll light a candle in the dark
Don’t know other ways to start

You keep on beggin’ for more
You never knew that I
Wasn’t even sure before
And I would keep on trying
You would ask me to go
And no one seems to read
What you were trying to show
Why’d you put me through this again?
You knew that I was
Never gonna be able to win
And there was something more
For me to say in this
And you should have known
That I was longing for peace
It has been so long, oh no
I felt so strong, oh no
And who should’ve known
That it wouldn’t be long
Since you got a hold on
What you thought was wrong
Fearing my own thoughts again
- And how you wanted more
When I’m supposed to mend
Hiding your mind won’t make
This better for me
When we can just
Re-write the pages from the end!
Why’d you trick me into re-wanting you?
And why deluding me to reason with truth?
I was aware of the given chance
Instead you shut me up
And made me doubt on my frame

His name was written in the sand
A light kept shining for a better man
He was always watching his back
‘Cause he knew what he accomplished
There was a time when you wouldn’t know
About his deeds and where he should go
Where to throw his troubles away
All he needed was a place to stay
Where to go when you’re washed away
When your guilt weighs a ton
Feel free to ask this way
You should borrow my gun
Once he drove outside of town
Just to make things clear to himself
He didn’t knew he was asking for help
Didn’t have anyone to tell
He was aware of what he had done
He’d lost more than a friend
Shouldn’t drink, shouldn’t fire the gun
But this all went down in the end
His name was written
A light kept shinin’
