I left Roman candle burning in the dark Spinning like a wheel Happy to leave its mark But you'd stay there forever And tell the moon to let it ride As far as it can hold Until you open up your eyes You won't have to let it go Remember all the nights when you didn't wear a mask Time moved in an instant Blink and it went past I don't miss North Carolina From the mountains to the sea When I'm out here on my own And I wanna turn the clock Draw blood from a stone All of my angels are on their knees Blacking out all my memories Something's wrong but nothing's gone Or is something gone and nothing's wrong? Ask me where I've been I met a drink for a friend With a complicated outlook and paralyzed within Nine Quarters in the jukebox And one to cut the line through lost love despair Put it in your pocket or throw it in the air As satellites approach, we are anybody's guess Articulate so easily what looked to be a mess And I left my head to wonder before the great divide When the parallels were few Rocky Mountain high, not much of a view All of my angels are on their knees Blacking out all of my memories Something's wrong but nothing's gone Or is something gone and nothing's wrong? Something's wrong but nothing's gone Or is something gone but nothing is...
