Lyrics
When the fire burns down
This time around
Just let the ashes
Blacken where they lie
Too many days gone by
When the best thing I remember
Is telling you goodbye
'cause there's cuts that don't heal
And there's a time when loving is more than what you need....
Six more hours time
Time to breath
Time to fly
Six more hours time
Time to breath
Time to fly
Old man's words
I remember
Eating....drinking....that's just wasting time
Death's head evil.... were his memories
One thing he never talked about was why
'cause there's cuts that don't heal
And there's times when hating is more than what you need....
Six more hours time
Time to breath
Time to fly
When the fire burns down
Cold comes back around
Dark windows, no stars....
Black outside and in.
See my angel wings
Hold me close
Pull me in
'cause there's cuts that don't heal
And there's a time when living is more than what you need....
Six more hours time
Time to breath
Time to fly
Six more hours time
Time to leave
This behind.
