lyrics

I wake up startled, vision hazy
the last thing i remember were the lights
my arms are spattered, blood and diamonds
i turn my head and see her form crumpled on my right

Crush of metal, tires screeching
The scent of fuel reminds me I'm alive
Out of silence, scream the sirens
Comprehension setting in as uniforms arrive

And it all comes rushing back without a sound
And it all comes rushing back without a sound

I call out softly, muted whisper
She might as well be miles away from me
Is she moving? Is she breathing?
Is this the way that nightmare becomes reality?

And it all comes rushing back without a sound
And it all comes rushing back without a sound

Through the windshield, i see faces
A private moment coming to an end
Their lips are moving, i hardly hear them
I try to say we’re not okay as i fade out again

And it all comes rushing back without a sound
And it all comes rushing back without a sound
And it all comes rushing back without a sound
And it all comes rushing back without a sound
