lyrics

Oh it broke my heart
When I lost my head
This was what I loved
But I was mislead

Didn’t bite my tongue
Didn’t keep the peace
Yeah I fired the gun
To get sweet release

I can’t bear the pain cause I went too far
I was burning out like a falling star
I lost who I was when we reached the end
Tell me how can I, can I start again

Yeah back then I thought I had it made
I thought everything was right as rain
But the winds began to howl again
As the storm began to stir within

Then pressure finally tipped the scales
And I knew that I was doom to fail
I let embers form within my lungs
I made fire rain down from above

I can’t bear the pain cause I went too far
I was burning out like a falling star
I lost who I was when we reached the end
Tell me how can I, can I start again

Now the ashes fall
Down to the ground
This was all my mess
My composure drowned

Now I can’t deny
The guilt and shame
Please forgive me I,
I can’t bear the pain

I can’t bear the pain cause I went too far
I was burning out like a falling star
I lost who I was when we reached the end
Tell me how can I, can I start again
