double vision

Left down on your own Avenue
Why pretend you don’t know the signs on the road
Waiting for darkness just to say you’re lost
Is no way to find your way back home

You know where you’ve been, you should know just where you are
It’s not the stars that light the night; it’s the night that lights the stars

The lights shine the truth all over you
Tire marks show where you left the road
Sure the dirt can be washed clean
But it doesn’t mean it never took hold

You know where you’ve been, you should know just where you are
It’s not the stars that light the night; it’s the night that lights the stars

And now in a weakened state
You find yourself looking for answers to your pain
Conveniently forgetting it was your direction
That made things this way

You know where you’ve been, you should know just where you are
It’s not the stars that light the night; it’s the night that lights the stars

Like scabs that bled
It’s time to heal and fade away
But you’re too caught up in the taste of your own blood
To realize you can live any other way

You know where you’ve been, you should know just where you are
It’s not the stars that light the night; it’s the night that lights the stars
