[Teralynne93]

I sold you out
I made amends
I made you trust in me again
We found our peace between the broken ends

You took the keys
You swallowed them
You said you'd never feel again
The lock you opened in oblivion

If you want me to wait, I'll wait
If you want me to break whatever needs to break
Line up your chains
If you want me to hear, I'll listen to every word you say
Vera, it's been three years since the day

The fire rained down on your parade
You left us all and I can't help but feel a bit betrayed
Your wounds are singing in my disdain
It's better off this way
Three years since the day

You made a pact
You dropped the act
You focused on what you could attract
The fights uphill, they helped to separate

You dropped the can and struck the match
A blaze you could not soon detach
The burning bright you tried to imitate

If you want me to stay, I'll stay
If you want me to take you from this life you hate
I'll face the pain
If you want me to steer, displaced, hand me both your reins
Vera, it's been three years since the day

The fire rained down on your parade
You left us all and I can't help but feel a bit betrayed
Your wounds are singing in my disdain
It's better off this way
Three years since the day

(All the nights you used to fear, all the song you'll never hear)
Since the day
(All the days becoming clear, all the life you'll never be here)

The fire rained down on your parade
You left us all and I can't help but feel a bit betrayed
Your wounds are singing in my disdain
It's better off this way
Three years since the day

(The fire)
Since the day
(The fire)
(If you want me to stay, I'll stay)
All the nights you used to fear, all the song you'll never hear
(If you want me to take you from this life you hate I'll take the pain)
All the days becoming clear, All the life you'll never be hear

It's better of this way
Three years since the day
