Lyrics Big Fire - Owls in the Attic

Big Fire

Meaningless, is everything that I once had
My hopes are dashed, and I’m alone
How am I always the last to know?
The taste of fear becomes the sting of betrayal
Everything I had built up in my mind is sinking in the sand
My hopes are dashed, I’m alone
How am I always the last to know?
I can’t believe that I am saying this again
You’ve cut me out at every single turn
I don’t appreciate being left out of this
I’ve said it again and again
You’ve been told repeatedly
The curtain falls, you are exposed
You have revealed yourself
For what you truly are
You’re afraid of sharing your faults
When I accept your everything
I would accept everything you are
Your happiness means nothing
When all bottled up, kept to yourself
Accepting everything you really are
If you don’t run from the truth
Will I go insane
In this life that I live
With a heart to forgive
Expecting a new result
While living selfishly
With the same old faults
I am a patient man
With a heart that can’t help
But forgive you one last time
I let it slide right through my hands
