Wasting Away
It doesn't make sense, and it doesn't seem right. How can one mislead decision, define the rest of my life. How can a choice that i made, so long ago, still effect me today and takes such a toll. I guess the regret I feel alone, just doesn't come close. And the place I once...

Daylight Is Wasting Away
You see the pain in my eyes And you erase the cruel lies I see the pain in your eyes Tell me something promising as time flies Don't say your goodbyes I say hello to our temporary highs Pre-chorus: Do you hear me, calling your name from the other side of the road?
