The Past

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Lajon Witherspoon] Beneath the water that's falling from my eyes 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 [Chorus: Lajon Witherspoon] I'm up, I'm down Like a roller coaster racing through my life I've erased the past again [Verse 2: Chris Daughtry, Lajon Witherspoon] A brisky 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 [Chorus: Chris Daughtry] 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 [Bridge: Lajon Witherspoon, Chris Daughtry, both] You left me here then broke me down The difference is this time around I will not let you see me drown [Chorus: Lajon Witherspoon, Chris Daughtry, both] 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 [Outro: Lajon Witherspoon, Chris Daughtry] Erased the past again now Erased the past again Beneath the water That's fallen from my eyes
