Crashed
Like A Movie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I thought if I locked them up, all of the terrible thoughts would plague my mind.
I knew if I let them out, I'd have you figured out just in time.

Did you really think that you would get away with it?
I think of it over and over in my head.
Did you really think that you would get away with it?
I think about all the things that have been left unsaid.
I am getting to sleep tonight.
My biggest mistake in life is now gone.
I noticed the ringing stopped.
All of the jaws have dropped.
I moved on.





With all the things that I have seen it does not make life look promising
But I'm stronger. I'm getting stronger.
