Afterburn

Didn't want love, didn’t want someone to grow on
Maybe we were a little too young
We won't be young when we're done, now back to one
Didn’t want lessons to learn
Didn't think something good could turn
Can't feel much after the nerves burn

And then in the end
You're not a friendly face, is that what you intend?
Once you ring that bell
Can't take that back, now everything has gone to hell

Are you still there, losing sleep?
When you dream, do you see me?
Can you even breathe at all?
Scared to death before the fall
Anticipation's worse, you're numb to pain
You're in the afterburn
In the afterburn
In the afterburn
In the afterburn
Afterburn

Try to go find a new life
Playin’ house, be a new wife
Trying to make what you got last, forget the past
Forget the times that you shed tears
Forget the blood shed over your fears
Nothing left after the smoke clears

Do you still dwell?
Can you still smell the ash?
When they ask why, do you still lie as you light one more match?
Yeah

Are you still there, losin’ sleep?
When you dream, do you see me?
Can you even breathe at all?
Scared to death before the fall
Anticipation's worse, you’re numb to pain
You're in the afterburn
In the afterburn
In the afterburn
In the afterburn
Afterburn
Are you still there, losin’ sleep?
