Better that we keep our mysteries intact   So no disessection, there's no charm in that   Frayed old flame, we're not the same   But you're ringin' through my chains   In a way beyond explainin'   Obsession and disgust an avalanche of thought   I am a monster at least that's what I thought   Frayed old flame, we're not the same   But you're ringin' through my chains   In a way beyond explainin'   Before you leave I want you to look over   Look here at me for once I'm sittin' still   This barn is red, these hills are green with summer   The past is dead and all is forgiven -- to be real   Petals start to snow from her half open hands   You loved a failure, now I'm just a man   All those questions that I won't ask   When I look around at the sky up above   I kick my feet in the ashes of defeat and   Know that when push comes to shove   Remain in love
