Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's an echo pulling out the meaning
Rescuing a nightmare from a dream
The voices in my head are always screaming
But none of this means anything to me
[Verse 2]
And it's a long way back from seventeen
The whispers turn into a scream
And I, I'm not coming home
[Verse 3]
Save your breath
I'm nearly bored to death
And fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Life is too short to last long
[Verse 4]
Life is too short to last long
[Verse 5]
There's a stranger staring at the ceiling
Rescuing a tiger from a tree
The pictures in her head are always dreaming
Each of them means everything to me
[Verse 6]
And it's a long way back from seventeen
The whispers turn into a scream
And I, I'm not coming home
[Verse 7]
Save your breath
I'm nearly bored to death
And fading fast
Life is too short to last long
[Verse 8]
Back on Earth, I'm broken
Lost and cold and fading fast
Life is too short to last long
Life is too short to last long
