Drippings of the Past Lyrics

time, is like a burning candle flaming with light
drippings of the past surround our future
life, leaving only residue behind
the flame, the heart, the wick, the brain
the wax that covers it all
protecting all the vital organs of time to come
as time melts away,
as so does nature's course
F G C (High F\E\F\E\D thing, Make it up dude!)
a force, even a burning flame cannot escape
(Chorus)
life is like a burning candle
just waiting to
melt away
And time, candle like man's birth
created for life on earth
every memory takes form as does melted wax
some memories they hang
the others, they only fall
the flame, the heart, the wick, the brain
the wax, protected all
now nothing is left, but the organs of our lives
G Am G C (High F\E\D thing, Make it up dude!)
a force, even a burning Flame cannot escape!
(Chorus)
life is like a burning candle
just waiting to
melt away
Yeeeeah...life is like a burning fucking candle
just waiting to
melt away
melt away
melt away
melt away
(breakdown Chorus)
life is like a burning candle
just waiting to
melt away
Aww yeah... life is like a fucking candle
just waiting to
melt away
melt away
Am (and ring it out)
melt away
