Start From Scratch

Can we start from scratch? Turn away, from the past? Memory clean, everything so green How long do you think it would last? Would it still feel right When our faces hit the light? Under control, never felt so bold Thinkin I can put up a fight We make mistakes And we run away But we come back every time We know the stakes And we run the race A different starting line Can we pretend That the world isn't coming an end The darkness that were feeling won't always send us reeling What do you think of that? Could I make you stay? What would you need me to say? To show you it's real this time The price that I've paid The beds that I've made We make mistakes And we run away But we come back every time We know the stakes And we run the race A different starting line We've got all the time we want Flowers cover the front of the house we built Let our minds stretch for miles Put out all the fires From the window sill We make mistakes And we run away But we come back every time We know the stakes And we run the race A different starting line We make mistakes And we run away But we come back every time We know the stakes And we run the race A different starting line
