Old Flames

Hey, what became of my head?
The beats in my heart, the jokes that I said
I guess all these false starts
Of a puzzle you can't finish 'cause you're missing the best parts
And don't you fear, I'm bringing you home
Out of this pit where I left you alone
In this horrible mess that I made
But I guess that's what you get when you're not paying attention
So baby welcome back to the man you've been missing
Baby welcome back to confusing, perplexing
We all go up in flames, going out in style
And heaven help us if they'd ever let us live for just a little while, yeah
We all go up in flames, going out in style
Am I out of my head to think the world could start believing me when I am dead?
I was a mess of a man with washed up excuses
I know, I know, pardon the confusion, it's me
We both agree that I wasn't the man that you needed me to be
But oh how I've changed, and oh how I've grown
But could she believe me when I've got nothing to show?
My everything she needs to see
The choice is hers to believe in me
So baby I'm back, and I'm not gonna stop
Baby I'm back, and I'm not gonna stop
We all go up in flames, going out in style
And heaven help us if they'd ever let us live for just a little while, yeah
We all go up in flames, going out in style
Am I out of my head to think the world could start believing me when I am, I am dead
You and me
We're not enemies, I'm begging
If anything, oh we are
We are in harmony
Sing with me, I plead
Oh, if I can make things right
Then this will be our night
The world against you and I
We all go up in flames, going out in style, style
We all go up in flames, going out in style
And heaven help us if they'd ever let us live for just a little while, yeah
We all go up in flames, going out in style
Am I out of my head to think the world could start believing me when I am dead?
