Lyrics

Collide

So I'm driving, leaving
Far away from this damn city
Lights watch me passing by
And I know I'll be fine
By staying away from my mistakes
Watching rain down on the sea
Bright white cliffs
Tears rolling with the waves
I know I can't erase your memory and run away, away

You are the one I can't replace

Tell me if your heart can bear this cold and empty sky
Tell me if your lies are burning inside just like mine, oh why?

Turning pages, places, pieces of myself
Then stranger faces but I know I can't pretend
You're always on my mind
You're like a ghost that cannot hide
Singing louder but off key
Heart beats faster
People look at me but I look for you in their eyes
I'm like a ghost but cannot hide

Tell me if your heart can bear this cold and empty sky
Tell me if your lies are burning inside just like mine, oh why?

When I look inside myself, when I look at all this mess
I see nothing but, nothing but regret
Take a look inside yourself, tell me if there's any chance
To make our worlds collide, worlds collide again

Tell me if your heart can bear this cold and empty sky
Tell me if your lies are burning inside just like mine, oh why?

Tell me if your heart can bear this cold and empty sky
Tell me if your heart can bear these lies
