ILLENIUM and All Time Low - Back To You

Had a bad dream on the operating table
I tried to scream, but I wasn't able
They replace my veins with cables
Now I'll never be the same again
I can't reach out your spirit
I can see the light, but I can't get near it
Echoes of your voice, but I can't quite hear it
How did we end up here?

I spent a lifetime lost
A generation of letting go
And now the daylight can't break through
It's another way back to you
Another two years gone
I spent forever letting go
And I don't wanna face the truth
It's a long way back to you

The light of day, slowly fade into sleepless nights
Lie awake, empty space, it's a waste of time
Push and pull, give and take
Couldn't make you mine, no-oh

And I just wanna recharge your spirit
I can see a light, but I can't get near it
Echoes of your voice, but I can't quite hear it
How did we end up here?

I spent a lifetime lost
A generation of letting go
And now the daylight can't break through
It's another way back to you
Another two years gone
I spent forever letting go
And I don't wanna face the truth
It's a long way back to you

If everything heals with time
Then why is our flame dying?
If you don't want to get this right
Then why are we still trying?
If everything heals with time
Then why is our flame dying?
If you don't want to get this right
Then why are we still trying?

If everything heals with time
Then why is our flame dying?
If you don't want to get it right
Then why are we still trying?
If everything heals with time (I spent a lifetime lost)
Then why is our flame dying? (A generation of letting go)
If you don't want to get it right (and now the daylight can't break through)
Then why are we still trying? (It's another way back to you)
If everything heals with time (another two years gone)
Then why is our flame dying? (I spent forever letting go)
If you don't want to get it right (and I don't wanna face the truth)
Then why are we still trying? (It's a long way back to you)
