lyrics

Trust me, I've heard all the stories of a past life...

Let me guess, I'll call it.
When you fell you felt "the whole world fall apart."
But one day you'll claim it,
showing all the others all the different patterns of your eyes

And I once said, "This is my life!" when I heard my name.
But we all drink our own poisons at different speeds.

I've heard you're heart isn't in it for the long run

Then you found the day the past forgave you,
but it took your head some time.
Saving all the pieces you held when you thought your heart would bend, and bend...and break

But we all say, "This is my life!" when we hear our names.
But we all drink our own poisons at different speeds.

You're afraid to face the shame, but I'm afraid to face the day,
So who am I to tell you how to live?
I refuse to believe that the tears of a stranger are just water,
(believe me,) it's good advice .
