Lyrics

You shake and you scream at yourself
Gave away what you wanted to keep
But you still have a side that you hide that I wanna see

Yeah I know the world can turn so fast
when you?re not even lookin
but you can?t get the time you?ve wasted back

After all the pieces find you
After all the lights burn out
When the ashes in your atmosphere come down
I?ll be around

You wear your past on your shoulders
Like an overcoat
That you?re pulling tight but you?re colder
From the scars that keep you

Lost inside the walls of doubt and shame
And you?re not even looking
You can?t see the window for the pain

After all the pieces find you
After all the lights burn out
When the ashes in your atmosphere come down
I?ll be around

I?ll be around

All your life
You?ve been letting the outside win
Soon you?ll find
There?s a world under your skin
Full of scenery changes, talking to strangers
Never too late to begin

After all the pieces find you
After all the lights burn out
When the ashes in your atmosphere come down
I?ll be around
