Years in the making and we've finally got something to show you. Hope ya like it.

lyrics

Paper trails broken hearts
Scattered around these engine parts
Turn the pages
Chapters end

And I kept it in my pocket
Never to show it
These crumpled remains
Weighted reminders

Turn the key, systems fail
My knuckles pale
Still no spark
Car won't start

Photographs and knick knacks
Wading through memories
And what I've done
Thickens the mud

Places, places all the same
Blurred in this mental game
Of hide and seek
The secrets we keep

Turn the key, systems fail
My knuckles pale
Still no spark
Car won't start

Problems persist
Mechanics can't fix
What's gone wrong
I still hold on

So they crush and throw it away
I find new pieces
Everyday
Losing my reasons

Turn the key, systems fail
My knuckles pale
Still no spark
Car won't start

Holding the keys
To a car that wouldn't start
Now just something
That fell a part
