Chasing Dragons

Look at yourself

Face to face

Through the cracks

And you want to chase the dragon

Want to taste that drug

And feel that rush again

Wide awake

Staring at the ceiling

Another drink should get you through the night

And you're praying for a savior

And I'm knocking, I'm knocking at your door

You look surprised as hell

To see this ugly face

Well, did you think that I would greet you with a smile?

Now tell me, friend, did you think I wouldn't find you?

Oh, and by the way, I've been here all the while

So here we are

You and I

The time has come to say goodbye

So you wound up chasing dragons

Over mountains flying high

But they left you, they left you here to die

Promises, well, you know they never keep them

So you just pretend that everything's alright

Was it childhood or the never-ending screaming?

Or the hurtful lies told by friends you never had?

So here we are

You and I

The time has come to say goodbye

So you wound up chasing dragons

Over mountains flying high

But they left you, they left you here to die

So here we are

You and I

The time has come to say goodbye

So you wound up chasing dragons

Over mountains flying high

But they left you, they left you here to die

They left you here to die

They left you here to die, whoa

They left you here to die
