I am someone who, until recent events
You shared your secrets with
And your location, you forgot to turn it off
And so I watch as you walk
Into some bar called, "The Black Dog"
And pierce new holes in my heart
You forgot to turn it off
And it hits me
I'm tired of tending to this fire
I've used up all I've collected
I have singed my hands
It's glowing
Embers barely showing
Proof of life in the shadows
Dancing on my plans
They know that it's almost
They know that it's almost over
They know that it's almost
They know that it's almost over
I move through the world with a heart broken
My longing state unspoken
And I may never open up the way I did for you
(The burning)
And all of those best laid plans
(Is concerning)
You said I needed a brave man
(When it goes out)
Then, proceeded to play him
(Glorious Gone)
Until I believed it too
And it kills me...
Time before they show me
Why no one ever comes back with details from beyond
They know that it's almost
They know that it's almost over
They know that it's almost
(Ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)
(They know that it's almost)
In time, I will leave the city
For now, I will stay alive
(Ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)
(They know that it's almost)
Six weeks of breathing clean air
I still miss the smoke
Were you making fun of me with some esoteric joke?
(Ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)
Now, I wanna sell my house and set fire to all my clothes
(Ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)
And hire a priest to come and exorcise my demons
Even if I die screaming
(Ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh)
And I hope you hear it-it-it
Last year, I needed change of pace, couldn't take the pace of change
Moving hastily
But this year, though I'm far from home
In Trench I'm not alone
These faces facing me
I still can't believe it
'Cause old habits die screaming
(They know, ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-ooooh
What I mean)
