Five years ago you painted the final scene of your life
In shades of grey and white that at the time seemed so hopeful
I'm here to tell you that you forgot one color that will bleed through the canvas
Ten bad decisions ago everything seemed inevitably promising
With red white and blue dreams that were always within your reach
I'm here to tell you that one decision can change everything
Say this time will be different
Here's your second chance (don't fuck things up again)
I've flipped the hour glass upside down just for you
Together we can paste the leaves back onto the withering trees
But only if you can assure me that they won't fall again to the same tragic melody
Fifteen minutes ago was a different day
In hues of passion and luxury the sun retired to the moon
I'm here to tell you that this will be your final sunset
Twenty lies ago you told the truth
If only to declare that you were a liar to a heart too weary
I'm here to strangle you with your own deceit
Say this time will be different
Here's your second chance (don't fuck things up again)
I've flipped the hour glass upside down just for you
Together we can paste the leaves back onto the withering trees
But only if you can assure me that they won't fall again to the same tragic melody
Twenty five promises broken
Forty tears fallen
Fifty five shortcomings
Seventy imperfections
Eighty five words you didn't mean to say
One hundred breaths too short
A thousand reasons to start over
Say this time will be different
Here's your second chance (don't fuck things up again)
I've flipped the hour glass upside down just for you
Together we can paste the leaves back onto the withering trees
But only if you can assure me that they won't fall again to the same tragic melody
