Lyrics
0:12It took some time some time to see the writing on the wall
0:16Spells out your name
0:18Guess some wounds you gotta feel
0:24I shoulder my share of the hurt
0:26And through it all I carry the blame
0:29I need some time to go and heal
0:34Tell you the truth
0:37Im taking a beating
0:40Thinking of you
0:43Stuck in a feeling
0:46Cause I left without a look
0:48Made an exit for the ages
0:51Through a door that's still revolving in my mind
0:57And I only kept the book
1:00To set fire to the pages
1:03Now Im burning down the story of my life
1:08Just to watch the fire
1:16Wasting my life waiting for time
1:18To heal the scars I gave to myself
1:21Now I got bandages to change
1:27I leave behind the the mess I poured into my heart
1:31Trying to fill up the well
1:33Where the ghost of you remains
1:38Show me the way
1:41Give me some guidance
1:44Something to say
1:47Break up the silence
1:49Cause I left without a look
1:52Made an exit for the ages
1:55Through a door that's still revolving in my mind
2:01And I only kept the book
2:04To set fire to the pages
2:07Now Im burning down the story of my life
2:12Just to watch the fire
2:17Just to watch the fire
2:24Cause I left without a look
2:27Made an exit for the ages
2:30To go chasing down extraordinary lies
2:34Yeah and the memories you shook
2:38Got me going through the stages
2:41Now Im digging up what I buried alive
2:47Now Im burning down the story of my life
2:53Yeah Im burning down the story of my life
2:58Just to watch the fire
3:03Just to watch the fire
It took some time some time to see the writing on the wall Spells out your name Guess some wounds you gotta feel I shoulder my share of the hurt And through it all I carry the blame I need some time to go and heal Tell you the truth Im taking a beating Thinking of you Stuck in a feeling Cause I left without a look Made an exit for the ages Through a door that's still revolving in my mind And I only kept the book To set fire to the pages Now Im burning down the story of my life Just to watch the fire Wasting my life waiting for time To heal the scars I gave to myself Now I got bandages to change I leave behind the the mess I poured into my heart Trying to fill up the well Where the ghost of you remains Show me the way Give me some guidance Something to say Break up the silence Cause I left without a look Made an exit for the ages Through a door that's still revolving in my mind And I only kept the book To set fire to the pages Now Im burning down the story of my life Just to watch the fire Just to watch the fire Cause I left without a look Made an exit for the ages To go chasing down extraordinary lies Yeah and the memories you shook Got me going through the stages Now Im digging up what I buried alive Now Im burning down the story of my life Yeah Im burning down the story of my life Just to watch the fire Just to watch the fire
