I Voted For Kodos - 11:22 lyrics

This candle, this flame I'll sit and watch it burn, slowly It burns away the memories of the pain I've felt So soon, so far away Don't try to hold it for a day It just makes things worse, I've learned If you try, you'll try to hold it close to you The more it slips away I feel numb from the neck down My arms hang useless, my feet drag on I'm staring straight I'm staring straight ahead Inside of me, I'll hold it down I know I can k** this with time Don't fight, don't fight it It makes it all worthwhile When I stare into the sun I just can't look away Thought it starts out warm I've learned it can burn me It seems I'll never learn Don't try to hold it for a day It just makes things worse, I've learned If you try, you'll try to hold it close to you The more it slips away Don't try to hold her for a day You'll just make it hurt, I've learned Though you'll try, you'll never hold her close enough to you The more she slips away This candle, this flame I'll sit and watch it burn, slowly It burns away the memories of the pain I've felt So soon, so far away Don't try to hold it for a day It just makes things worse, I've learned Oh I've tried, I tried to hold her close to me And now she's slipped away
