Dead As History

I made a big mistake with you tonight
The way our insides burned like moths flying to light

As the sun begins to set
I cannot find my way back
Walking with my eyes on fire
I never found the payback

We'll never feel like anything is wrong
The tragedy is not just our own sad song
Walls we have built and bridges we have burned
Deeper the hole the farther we feel from harm

I know the games we play
Give us a way
way for us to see if we still feel alive

Time is always right behind us
Like the lamb under the gun
I'll hold on to this forever
That is never long enough
