Burning Building

Staring into silence, trying to speak your name

But I can't remember, 'cause it's not the same

When I thought I knew you, I thought we'd never change

But we're different now, and there's no one left to blame

Faltering through the motions, following the plans

Doing what they told us to with half our hearts in hand

We both know that when we're through, we'll never speak again

We just want to tell ourselves we're doing everything we can

I hate to leave a burning building

I've never been the first to run

I can't stand to lose your memory

But what's the use?

We know you'll never be the one

Ringing like a bell tower, pounding like a glove

My hands are getting heavy from fighting God above

I wish that I could tell you you're what I'm dreaming of

But when you're gone, I know I'll only dream of your love
