The years have increased into my skin
Marked by the lines below my eyes
I've learned to live within my sins
Now in the dark I feel alive
Time reflects every steps of my past
From a laughter on a sunny day
From a child who's grown way too fast
Into a man with nothing to say
Inside my heart I'm covered in scars
Hiding my pain behind a smile
I've watched my friends become night stars
So I've shut the door for a while
I've lost my way out of a dream
About love that can't be seen
I found balance on a golden string
Held by a whisper in the wind
I'm leaning upon a burning mind
Fighting the flames spreading around
I've read the words that I could find
Before the flames could burn them down
I changed the lines surrounding my past
Leading my feet along the way
To walk upon the years of my life
Searching for a laughter on a sunny day
I found my way out of a dream
About love that can't be seen
I fell down from this broken string
Sharing the words upon a scene
When youth is just a memory
Ready to open its wings
Leaving a man feeling sorry
That he couldn't keep everything
