Fire burns like that night we meet
Here we are but not where we have been
Let’s look back, back where we can never go
Back to the happy days and smiling faces
Back when we were friends
The world was safe and I was young
We were stupid and life fun
What are we now?
Memories drawn on the blank walls
I burned them down and burned you with them
Forget you, forget the walls
Let the whole world burn
Walk away from the night, from that night
