Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This was the place that only you would know
Walking away, watching the ashes as they fall
Reaching into your eyes
I can feel you crawling through my veins
Like catching the first sunrise
Mesmerized
Sever the skies, bury the truth, forget the time
These were the years we tried to leave behind
Whatever we are, I still remember the way we were
Reaching into your eyes
I can feel you crawling through my veins
Like catching the first sunrise
Mesmerized
(Wa, hoo, hoo)
(Wa, hoo, hoo)
(Wa, hoo, hoo)
(Wa, hoo, hoo)
Sometimes when I'm with you
These feelings falling like a landslide as both of our dreams collide
Reaching into your eyes
I can feel you crawling through my veins
Like catching the first sunrise
Mesmerized
