  • This is the last time
    That I'm ever gonna come here tonight
    This is the last time I will fall
    Into a place that fails us all inside

    And I can see the pain in you
    And I can see the love in you
    But fighting all the demons will take time
    It will take time

    The angels they burn inside for us
    Are we ever, are we ever gonna learn to fly
    The devils they burn inside of us
    Are we ever gonna come back down
    Come around
    I'm always gonna worry about
    The things that could make us cold

    This is the last time
    That I'm ever gonna give in tonight
    Are there angels or devils crawling here?
    I just want to know what blurs and what is clear to see

    Well, I can see the pain in you
    With I can see the love in you
    And fighting all the demons will take time
    It will take time

    The angels they burn inside for us
    And are we ever, are we ever gonna learn to fly
    The devils they burn inside of us
    And are we ever gonna come back down
    Come around
    I'm always gonna worry about the things
    That could break us

    And if I was to give in give it up and then
    I take a breath make it deep
    'Cause it might be the last one you get
    Be the last one
    That could make us cold
    That could make us cold
    I'm always gonna worry about
    The things that could make us cold Writer/s: JAMES B WOOD, JOHN ROBERT RICHARDS, PETER JAMES MALONEY, RODNEY N CRAVENS, SCOTT PRESTON ALEXANDER

  • Brian from Boston, MaAll I hear is piano what are you talking about?
  • Kenny from Chimbote, PeruThe way the acoustic guitar plays in the intro is a kinda mechanic, sometimes rough, but when the electric guitar starts, the acoustic sounds softer and with rythm of ballad, I love this song
