Our lives ignite under the bright lights

(chorus)
So, can't you see this?
You're like the phoenix...
that's engulfed in the ashes of the past
Yeah so watch me burn for you again...
and again you ask?
Watch me burn up like the past

The smile upon your face that time, the light was gleaming in your eye
It didn't mean that forever was for too long
Dying here in yesterday's grave, my love's a thousand miles away
I know that you are safe even though you're not here
So when i see your beautiful smile again, I'm gonna break before i bend
...and now that i know you'll be there when it's all said and done
It's like the world should revolve around people like us

Our lives ignite under the bright lights

(chorus)

The days are going by so damn slow, the nights have lost their glow
Maybe it's because i'm not holding you in my arms
I need you babe, my life is spinning out of control
I'm the walking human example of a trainwreck
In a still image, capsized like a sunken ship in the...middle of nowhere
Can't hide it...it kills me when you're gone
But i know we're both strong and we can get through
Remember, forever isn't too long...and i won't bail out on you

Our lives ignite under the bright lights

(chorus)

This heart's a bleeding hole of frustration
Remember the days when we didn't even care?
Let's make it back to how it was in the beginning
Back when love had a meaning and this pain wasn't here
So watch me burn...for you
Like a phoenix
