• Dead heart, you're not beating
    And it's feeling
    A timid sensation
    Once I look at the still photo on the wall
    Then it revives and pounds
    He was the only one that could reach me
    A heart of steel

    Pre Chorus
    Affliction
    My prescription
    To make me come alive
    When the rest of the metro stands still

    Chorus
    As the cars rush by and the stoplights blur
    In the pouring Atlantic rain
    These graying eyes only see one thing
    Your meteoric smile
    I know your train takes you miles away
    My heart bears the toll
    Of a distant love
    As you head on, you're on my mind

    Still doll, sitting on your shelf
    An antique of yourself
    From last October
    When him and I last rolled in the autumn leaves
    And played make believe
    He was the only one whe could hold
    Delicately
    A broken doll

    Pre Chorus

    Chorus

    Bridge
    These pale cheeks blush in the breeze
    It feels like your kiss
    The sun embraces me
    Like your arms did to me at night
    And though you're so far
    Out of my fingertips
    I feel you, I feel you

    Chorus

    As the metro lays motionless
    And the busy crowds fade out
    Standing there like I know you will
    When you return
