Behind these blue eyes
A kiss from a rose draws blood
Goodbye goodbye her

Only memory
A believer of the day
Endless reckoning

Would do anything
Say anything but goodbye
It’s never enough

Radioactive
How long before done trying
Radioactive

Love almost killed me
Alive if you’re happy
Love almost saved me

Tattoo over scars
Pain the truest of feelings
Gone away love has

It don’t come easy
Love & trust all I wanted
Was not worth the work

Shattered torn apart
Serenity return here
Start over elsewhere

Where can I call home
Give me shelter from this storm
I’m coming undone

The world has grown cold
Only you could bring me warmth
Surrender to stars

Down at the crossroads
A day on the battlefield
Other side calling
