What Became Of Me

by Roses Are Red

/
1.
These Days 03:47
Still waiting... A touch of turpentine What are you hiding, girl? Have you made up your mind? She's nothing in her fantasies She sings in broken melodies That I'm putting back together again These days we're dreaming of The ways we fell in love The things we're guilty of
2.
Failing 03:14
I feel this pressure weighing down, weighing down on me I can't complete a thought, it's hard to breathe, it keeps me awake I'm walking fearfully through every day, through every place, but I just can not turn away... Failing in conversation, but I wanted you to show me I wanted just to know me like you do Failing in conversation, but I'm never giving in Can you take away this pain i'm living in? I feel this silence raining down, raining down on me All my weaknesses for you to see, I've lost track of days I'm right back where I started from Face to face with what I've become But I just can not turn away...
3.
So tell me another story Make it up as you go It's alright, we can find a new place to hide they'll never know We could wait here til morning It would be safer then It's alright, we can find a new place to start again A new place to begin Put your arms around me now, don't turn around This city's burning to the ground So we'll drive for days And I'll take your fear away And fail I might But I'm giving it all tonight, giving it all tonight I'm only fearing failure And everything's on track We're moving forward, never looking back As long as this will last Searching for our fate, however far away We're never coming home And I need to escape And you need to be saved We're in this all alone
4.
A sense of wonder Finding what is real What went on here taught me how to feel We're alone in the memories of how we used to be It's our time to be honest, our time to be free You're still breathing Show your eyes to me Your heart's still beating Show your eyes Frozen under At times we pay no mind What went on here taught me how to shine We're alone here in the memories of how we used to be It's our time to be free
5.
In this room I learned to love with you So in love with you somehow I've been alone here all this time, I've seen the daylight in your eyes Through your eyes, I learned to see again In night fall we are born We wish for something more And now with dawn approaching, falling faster than before Clarity we find in morning light (so come with me tonight) Cause this could be the last time you find me drowning in the lie (so come with me tonight) It's getting late, the light will fill this room I'm through with you for now I've been alone here all this time, another day has passed me by I'm alive, until I wake again So so long, my wishing well You found me in this same hell So so long, my sweetest day You took the pain away
6.
Welcome to lonely I'm taking what you owe me No matter where you are I swear I'm gonna find you Broken wings can hold me You'll never make it right No matter where you are I swear I'm gonna find you So you wanna bring me down If I beg to differ now Well I'm never gonna be like you... Look on the bright side You're always on the outside No matter where you are I swear i'm gonna find you I can be the taker And you can be the faker No matter where you are I swear I'm gonna find you No matter where you are, I swear I'm gonna find you here No matter where you are, I'm walking right behind you here
7.
There's something going on here, something very wrong Burn a bridge and drink the water from below From every way I've grown, and everything I've known I should've wondered long ago I'm watching, waiting For something to make this all worth while I'm yearning and burning out into the night So remember me, and sing a revolution (It's happening, it's happening) Will I ever be a part of the solution? (It's everything, it's everything) I've never been prepared here, I've never even cared Cause this desert wind, it has me by the hand From every way I've grown, and everything I've known I should've wondered long ago
8.
I saw the rain wash her away It took me to the wire The sun erasing her in waves Set my heart on fire Now I know She's running out, we're running out of time Off we go... Stay the same, I think we're better off this way Play your game, I'd rather fly than fade away Replaced her eyes with dollar signs I'm a fucking star, look at me now With mine her wishes realign That's just who we are Now I know, she's running out But are we running out of time?
9.
I wanted more I wanted to believe I'll take what's mine and hold it close to me So you can see I'll take my time Drink away the memories I'll take what's mine and hold it close to me So you can see We're spinning in circles Keep our feet on the ground So just say the words, and we'll be on our way Another mistake, a price to pay I wanted to tell you, but you were nowhere to be found I'm just a pauper king without a crown And the love we had before Is a kingdom that's worth fighting for We're spinning in circles With our feet on the ground
10.
If I rise and we fall Will we find ourselves remembering at all? You're never coming back, it never hurt like this Are we understanding or withstanding? I told you it'd never be this way It means the world to me I told you, it'd never be this way again What fools we've made Now we find ourselves imagining a way I'm never coming back, it never hurt like this Are we understanding or withstanding? I told you it'd never be this way It means the world to me I told you, it'd never be this way again I'm building daydreams carefully If only you could see, what became of me I'm building daydreams carefully If only you could see You wouldn't be ashamed of me I built this daydream carefully for only you to see Are you ever coming back? Have you ever hurt like this? Please believe you're what became of me
11.
And I don't want to say these things to you, And I wonder now... If I don't want to display these wings to you Could we be one somehow? Release me... Trace the outline, fill me in I can't remember where I've been... I'll sinking deeper, I'm wearing thin But can't remember where I've been.
