Lyrics

Words Mean Nothing

My sanity has left me

My trust died with you

What is left are only pieces

My tears fall for you

I'm gonna fly

I'm gonna roll

I'm gonna thunder

So I place the roses

So gently on your grave

And I still remember

I can feel the flames

And I know I have failed

And my promises nothing worth

I see it all so clear

But my words mean nothing

I'm gonna fly

I'm gonna roll

I'm gonna thunder

My sanity has left me

The trust I once had has died

What is left are only pieces

All my words been proven lies

Been proven lies

If I could I would

Fly roll thunder

All for just another chance to speak with you

Show you

But my words...

But my words mean...

Nothing
