lyrics
I'll tell how I return to the world,
If you can tell me now is it now or never,
You said I would find you faster,
If you can tell me now what you're feeling,
If we burn out, what do I see then?
If you whisper, what am I hearing?
If I listen, what am I dreaming?
If we return, what are we stealing?
We don't have to fade away,
I'll tell how it "weren't" the first time,
But can you tell me how it's been a year,
You said I'd avoid disasters,
If I could be what you're being,
If we burn out, what do I see then?
If you whisper, what am I hearing?
If I listen, what am I dreaming?
If we return, what are we stealing?
We don't have to fade away,
I'll tell you how it worked the last time,
If you testify that it's been real,
You said I'd know all the answers,
Can you tell me what's the difference,
If we burn out, what do I see then?
If you whisper, what am I hearing?
If I listen, what am I dreaming?
If we return, what are we stealing?
We don't have to fade away,
Took you now right by my side,
We are outside of this world,
So, in time, we always find,
A voice that tells me you’re the reason,
If we burn out, what do I see then?
If you whisper, what am I hearing?
If I listen, what am I dreaming?
If we return, what are we stealing?
We don't have to fade away.
