lyrics

I,
I turn a light switch on.
Someone swoops right in and turns it off.
All that remains is my ill timed cough.

In,
In this dark infested room,
Her light fades away closing the door.
I'm an artist sculpting my arm with gore.

And I,
Could tell you of my love since long ago.
Ring around the Rosie inside my head now.
Bumble bees buzz inside my head now.

Love,
It never comes back home
Tracks for her in my heart
I can't believe we'll never start

Love,
It never comes back home
Crashing cars subconsciously
Jumping cliffs eventually.

Cling,
Onto hope with iron fists.
Finger melted, molten, and scorched.
But love is stuck; a built-in torch.

Collapse,
This room falls on me.
Piece by piece I'll move this wall.
If it means I'll ever see her at all.

And I,
Could tell you of my love since long ago.
Ring around the rosie inside my head now.
Bumble bees buzz inside my head now.

And I,
Could tell you of my love burning since long ago.
Ring around the Rosie killed my head now.
And bumble bees are stinging inside my head now.

Love,
It never comes back home
Tracks for her in my heart
I can't believe we'll never start

Love,
It never comes back home
Crashing cars subconsciously
Jumping cliffs eventually.

I'll never reach Ashley.
But forever,
forever,
forever,
I extend my arm.
