[Verse]
Well, I've got
some scattere
d pictures lyi
ng on my bedro
om floor.
Reminds me of
the time we sh
ared.
Makes me wis
h that you wer
e here. Well,
Now it seems I
've forgotten
my purpose in
this life.
All the songs
have been eras
ed.
Guess I've lea
rned from my m
istakes.
[Chorus]
Open the past
)
and present. N
ow and we are
there.
Story to te
ll and I am li
stening
Open the past
)
and present. A
nd the future
too.
It's all I've
got and I'm gi
vin it to you.
[Verse 2]
Loose ends tie
d in knots. Le
aving a lump d
own in my thro
at.
Gagging on a s
ouvenir.
Lodged to fill
another year.
Drag it on a
nd on until
my skin is rip
ped to shreads
.
Leaving myself
open wide
Living out a s
acrifice.
{repeat chorus}

Could it be al
