Eyes
Stained Ashes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Smoke and flame, still take the blame
Close my eyes, forget you name
Burn your pictures every day, wake up it's still the same
This wont ever change, nothing new to say

Surviving thoughts run thin
More than ever now, more than ever now
Guilt kicks in!

Can we pretend that this will never end?
Wake up every day and see it's still the same
Green eyes, black skies, desguise their lies
Last thing I said to you, I take it back, it was never true

Blood and concrete, I'm on my knees
Silent screams, I'm begging please
I'm seeing read etched in my head
The last thing I said!

Guilt kicks in
Surviving thoughts run thin
More than ever now, more than ever now
Guilt kicks in!

Can we pretend that this will never end?
Wake up every day and see it's still the same
Green eyes, black skies, desguise their lies
Last thing I said to you, I take it back, it was never true





Dear God Tell Me I am Dreaming
