Lyrics and translation
Original
Fires burning on the mountain you can smell for miles around.
It's getting heavy and the ash is snowing softly on this town.
It's getting hard to see the ground.
Burns to breathe, it's hard to see, it's getting darker by the day.
Try to speak, but I'm too weak from all the coughing I can take.
All that's left to do is pray.
Far too wasted, hollowed out.
Far too faded, it's hogged me down. It carries through my bones, and that's something I hold close.
If I start choking on my lies, would you leave me here to die?
'Cause all I've ever known is everything I hold turns to dust and smoke.
I've been dreaming about the moment that I saw you in my sleep.
Told me I was too damn young to be the type of man you'd keep.
The girl that lives inside me.
They say the only way to make it out of hell is through you.
That the darkest times can bring out the light in you.
Well, if only that were true.
Far too wasted, hollowed out.
Far too faded, it's hogged me down. It carries through my bones, and that's something I hold close.
If I start choking on my lies, would you leave me here to die?
'Cause all I've ever known is everything I hold turns to dust and smoke.
Far too wasted, hollowed out.
Far too faded, it's hogged me down. It carries through my bones, and that's something I hold close.
If I start choking on my lies, would you leave me here to die?
'Cause all I've ever known is everything I hold turns to dust and smoke.
