lyrics

I built these walls,
So I'll tear them down when I want to,
I could show it all but I'd be bare,
I need something to hold onto,

You know I feel like going home sometimes,
But I can't,
You know it feels like morning rain,
When all your pride is on parade,

This is not a game, although you think it is,
Couldn't be further from what the truth is,
Alcohol and cigarettes never left such a mess,

This is the last I remember,
This is the last I recall,
I swore I'd never ever leave you,
But you got my back up against the wall,
This is the last I remember,
This is the last I recall,
I know not everything is fair in love,
In love and war,

You can hide away,
Even cowards let go if they know how,
You cast words like they are knives,
From a poison tongue, cutting deep inside,

This is not a game, although you think it is,
We couldn't be further from what the truth is,
Alcohol and cigarettes: a tainted digress,

Chorus,

Return leaves to the tree,
Return grape to the vine,
I wish there was something I could say,
Return blue to the sky,
Return sleep to my nights,
I wish there was something I could say,
It's gone like yesterday is,

Chorus.
