Story Behind the Song
This song is about dealing with friends or family members who are dealing with drugs and the denial that that creates. It's about when you wish you could give up on someone but know that you can't.
Lyrics
you swore this was the last time
but can you look me in the eyes and say it's true
so throw the blame and cave in again
cuz now I am through, with you
you threw it all away, like it never meant a thing
the needle's sting the bleeding, my voice coursing through your veins
and you swore that this could change, but I don't see you breaking
nothing's fading, away
Hold me up, against the flame, tonight
Close your eyes, forget the pain
Cuz it will fade with time
the scars that we have left, the feelings burned into your skin
watching tears well up, well maybe not again
and for my sake let it change, cuz I can't take another day
putting up with your games
Hold me up, against the flame, tonight
Close your eyes, forget the pain
Cuz it will fade with time
cut close to watch this fall away
kill time kill all those games we played
burning bridges burning out but now it's still the same
cuz nothing's changed
Hold me up, against the flame, tonight
Close your eyes, forget the pain
Cuz it will fade with time
