Lays a soul I left behind
The edge of sorrow was reached but now I'm fine
I filled the hole I had inside
I'll pray it doesn't scream my name
So I light a flame and let it breathe
The air that kills the shame
I'm up, I'm down
Like a roller coaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
A risky morning, I feel like I'm alive
I can't believe I made it through this time
The edge of sorrow I lived in for some time
(Lived in for some time)
Has left the hole I have inside
The burden is I try my hate
Was the last thing I ever felt
Or thought I could escape
I'm up, I'm down
Like a roller coaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
I'm up, I'm down
Like a roller coaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
You left me here then broke me down
The difference is this time around
I will not let you see me drown
I'm up, I'm down
Like a roller coaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
I'm up, I'm down
Like a roller coaster racing through my life
I've erased the past again
Erased the past again now
Erased the past again
Beneath the water
That's fallen from my eyes
