lyrics

Out on the streets at 17
Sitting around like your head's in a guillotine
(Your whole life's) broken and it can't fixed, least that's what you tell yourself
High as a mountain and you can't come down
Your fire's burning but it's burning out
picture perfect lies inside a magazine

pushing the buttons on your telephone
battery died over a year ago
you got pocket change to make a call
if you really really wanted to
open your eyes its time to wake up
kick the poison in yer paper cup
your'e acting like the world don't want to know ..but

I want to help you
We've still got time
I want to help you
but tell me – tell me are you willing to try

Back on the streets at 21
ready to fire like the last bullet in a gun
there's no way to break the curse, least that's what you tell yourself
pockets filled with the devils seeds
you sway in the wind like Eden's tree
trapped in the headlights you don't even try to run

you crossed the line at 25
thank the heavens that you made it out alive
made a promise to yourself that you'd never let the devil in again
Even on the rainy days
You gotta stay dry to keep away the pain
All that I can do is be your friend

I want to help you
We can change the story line
I want to help you
but tell me – tell me are you willing to try
