You were standing right in front of me,

and the walls came crashing in.

I left you waiting there for me,

till everything disappeared.

I never really knew you,

but when I saw you standing there,

so cold and lonely.

I knew I had to be there.

It doesn't even matter,

the words that we have spoke.

It faded with the embers,

you left me in the smoke.

It doesn't even matter.

The words that we have spoke.

It faded with the embers,

you left me in the smoke.

I hold onto your picture.

Don't go up in flames.

I hold onto your memories.

Can't you see that I'm afraid.

I hold onto your picture.

Don't go up in flames.

I hold onto your memories.

Can't you see that I'm afraid.

It doesn't even matter.

The words that we have spoke.

It faded with the embers.

You left me in the smoke.

It doesn't even matter.

The words that we have spoke,

it faded with the embers.

You left me in the smoke.

You were standing right in front of me,

and the walls came crashing in.

I left you waiting there for me,

till everything disappeared.
