Our lives ignite under the bright lights (chorus) So, can't you see this? You're like the phoenix... that's engulfed in the ashes of the past Yeah so watch me burn for you again... and again you ask? Watch me burn up like the past The smile upon your face that time, the light was gleaming in your eye It didn't mean that forever was for too long Dying here in yesterday's grave, my love's a thousand miles away I know that you are safe even though you're not here So when i see your beautiful smile again, I'm gonna break before i bend ...and now that i know you'll be there when it's all said and done It's like the world should revolve around people like us Our lives ignite under the bright lights (chorus) The days are going by so damn slow, the nights have lost their glow Maybe it's because i'm not holding you in my arms I need you babe, my life is spinning out of control I'm the walking human example of a trainwreck In a still image, capsized like a sunken ship in the...middle of nowhere Can't hide it...it kills me when you're gone But i know we're both strong and we can get through Remember, forever isn't too long...and i won't bail out on you Our lives ignite under the bright lights (chorus) This heart's a bleeding hole of frustration Remember the days when we didn't even care? Let's make it back to how it was in the beginning Back when love had a meaning and this pain wasn't here So watch me burn...for you Like a phoenix
