Backlit Medley

From the beginning
I drew a picture of the searching sun
Blissfully denying what is instinct
(Instinct)
Since the beginning
I've seen color
But lately it's been tainted with
Grays and under-glows
A constant fight
With who I am and who I have to be
Forgive me for the fool
That I've become
I take back the stupid things I've done
How do we keep our innocence?
From burning away
A backlit medley of hello and goodbyes
Our trip-wire catching
There's good in every try
A constant fight
With who I am and who I have to be
Forgive me for the fool that I've become
I take back the stupid things I've done
And how do we keep our innocence?
From burning away
One kiss
No words
A toxic melody creeps through my
Body
Black ink
Your lips
Paint my future

Please forgive me for the fool that I've become
I take back the stupid things I've done
And how do we keep our innocence?
From burning away... (We're burning away, burning away)
I'm tired of trying
How long will it take?
To break away
From all of my
Dirty mistakes
And how do we keep our innocence?
From burning away (We're burning away, burning away, burning away)
(We're burning away)
(We're burning away)
Burning away
Burning away
Burning away
We are burning
Away
