What happened to my woods
are all black and burned down? (To the ground)
I was just starting to find a couple
easy paths to my house (home sweet home)
And I gotta pretend like everything's
alright and start over again 'cause it's not the end
I've been blessed by the best,
so if you wanna test I'll lay mine down, here right now like
All these empty spaces
They been fillin' up my mind
And I've been losing track of places
I've been losing track of time
Gotta pretend like everything's
alright and start over again ('cause its not the end)
I've been movin on my way,
trying to say all there is to say (day by day)
And I'm working on my balance,
lookin for a challenge and I've had enough (waitin and preparin)
Stars once bright in the night are all but shaded out
time to twist and shout like
All these empty spaces
They been fillin' up my mind
And I've been losing track of places
I've been losing track of time
All these empty spaces
They been fillin' up my mind
And I've been losing track of places
I've been losing track of time
