Arnold Hill - Back to Life Lyrics

New life starts today
Times of old are thrown away
Welcome to tomorrow my friend
Looking back means nothing
No, nothing can change the end
Of what has already been created

I'll just learn to hide
Behind someone else's eyes
I'm trying so hard to be
Who I thought you would notice
The flaming bridge we set between
Will give way before too long

We can't keep reliving the day
Where we made that mistake
And try to take that pain away
Because it keeps us alive
We can't look down while looking up
We can't undo what we have done
But it will be our own dumb luck
That brings the dead back to life

Walking to my room
The air still thick with your perfume
I need to step outside
I'll smoke on the memories of you
And in the ashes, I will hide
From the light shine through the trees

We can't keep reliving the day
Where we made that mistake
And try to take that pain away
Because it keeps us alive
We can't look down while looking up
We can't undo what we have done
But it will be our own dumb luck
That brings the dead back to life

Take me from this place
My present form is what I can't shake
My bags are packed to leave
Though I know it hurt before
I'm damn sure it's what's best for me
To journey on with you

We can't keep reliving the day
Where we made that mistake
And try to take that pain away
Because it keeps us alive
We can't look down while looking up
We can't undo what we have done
But it will be our own dumb luck
That brings the dead back to life
