When it used to be so simple
And now you run around day and night
Every victory feels like freedom
You can chase it all you like

Now I have to ask tell me you're lonely
When you shut your eyes at night
Or do you cover your eyes in the morning
Just to block out the light

You remember it as a person
All the things that you get to know
As you look through the window to your soul
But the curtains closed

And you tried your best to see it
But you don't try much anymore
And love was a beating banging drum
In the back of your mind
But you won't know until you try

And we all forgot the reasons
All the promises are unfulfilled
As you move to the coastline with the pieces
Of a heart that you will never know

Will you remember it as a shadow
All the things that you can't get past
And I'll be the fear in your heart
Just so you know that it will never last

And you tried you're best to see it
But you don't try much anymore
If love was a beating banging drum
In the back of your mind
It's just like burning your luck
It's like jumping in the fire
But you won't know until you try
