Sevendust - The Past Lyrics

(*Witherspoon/Rose/Connolly)
[** feat. Chris Daughtry:]


Beneath the water*
That's falling from my eyes
Lays a soul I've left behind
The edge of sorrow was reached but now I'm fine
I've filled the hole I had inside

I'll pray it doesn't scream my name
So I light a flame and let it breathe
The air that kills the shame

I'm up
I'm down
Like a rollercoaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again

A risky morning
I feel like I'm alive
I can't believe I've made it through this time
The edge of sorrow I lived in for some time
(Lived in for some time)
Has left the hole I have inside

The burden is I try my hate
Was the last thing I ever felt
Or thought I could escape

I'm up
I'm down
Like a rollercoaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
(2x)

You let me in then broke me down
The difference is this time around
I will not let you see me try

I'm up
I'm down
Like a rollercoaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
(2x)

Erased the past again now
Erased the past again

Beneath the water
That has fallen from my eyes
