Gave it all to burn forever underneath the rainDrowning in the present of a past that I couldn’t changeWriting songs instead of letters because I’m too afraidAfraid of coming back to find that everything is the sameI made my way through hell again, I paid for my mistakesNext time I think I’ll stay awhile and pour myself a drinkWhen I return, I’ll look for you, so listen for your nameIf you can make it out above the roaring of the flamesIf it’s the mask you want, then it’s the mask that you will getBut when I take it off remember that you asked for thisI tore myself apart to give you all that I could giveDon’t think that I will let it go, don’t think that I’ll forgetI thought I wanted legacy, I thought I wanted fameI didn’t know I’d lose all my loved ones in exchangeLeft them all behind and yeah for that I am ashamedBut that’s the price I’m paying ’til I’m buried in my graveGave it all to burn forever underneath the rainDrowning in the present of a past that I couldn’t changeWriting songs instead of letters because I’m too afraidAfraid of coming back to find that everything is the sameI’ll do it all over again from the startAnd this time you’re not leaving me in the darkYou took me for granted now look where you areAtop of a kingdom you built out of cardsI thought I wanted legacy, I thought I wanted fameI didn’t know I’d lose all my loved ones in exchangeLeft them all behind and yeah for that I am ashamedBut that’s the price I’m paying ’til I’m buried in my graveI’ll do it all over again from the startAnd this time you’re not leaving me in the darkYou took me for granted now look where you areAtop of a kingdom you built out of cards
