silencethem - Flowers of Fire

The wind feels so cold
It swallows me whole
I can't see the sun
The story's just begun

Everything that I did
Everything that I said
Was taken in the wrong way
So I poured it up strong to numb the pain
Watching everything fade away, fade away
One minute I'm sitting next to you
Smoking cigarettes, doing what we do
But then I wake up and you're gone
So long, so wrong
I put it in a song

Flowers of fire
A slave to my desires
Burning up like polaroids sitting in the pile
The ashes disappear against the indigo sky
Empty inside, I tried
Feeling like I wanna...

The scars I've left
Secrets kept
I have to live with them
My life is filled with much regret
I wish I was exempt
Lost who meant the most
And now I'm chasing ghosts
Only in my head, do they live...

Flowers of fire
A slave to my desires
Burning up like polaroids sitting in the pile
The ashes disappear against the indigo sky
Empty inside, I tried
Feeling like I wanna...

I'd take back every word I said
If it would bring me back to them

My life is a motion picture that won't slow down
And I'm glad to see you're happy now
Just know I'm sorry for the man I was
Just know I live with all the damage done

They say to never get stuck inside the past
But life is moving fast, wish I knew those days would never last
So many people gone away
Things I never got to say
Under streetlights tonight, I bow my head and pray
Nightmares and flashbacks, I'm plagued
Drive through any given town I feel the weight
The wind it hits my face
I feel it, it's the only way
For a moment I can live within those days...

Flowers of fire
A slave to my desires
Burning up like polaroids sitting in the pile
The ashes disappear against the indigo sky
Empty inside, I tried
Feeling like I wanna...
Flowers of fire
A slave to my desires
Burning up like polaroids sitting in the pile
The ashes disappear against the indigo sky
Empty inside, I tried
Feeling like I wanna...

The wind feels so cold
It swallows me whole
I can't see the sun
The story's just begun
