lyrics

There are so many stories in my mind,
But they're all so God damn tragic.
There are so many people in my life,
But they're all so goddamn absent.
And so many chances pass me by,
But I just can't see the worth in them.
Feels like I'm just waiting to die,
But that can't be right.

Why are we burdened with the vision of a world that will never be?
Why are we burdened with the vision of people who we'll never meet?
It's like time's taking my whole life away, floating in a void so bitter sweet.
The bitter is the sweetness in its unreality, and I swear, I just can't take it.

Do you expect me to play the game like it's real?
There is just no place where I really feel at home,
So take it all away, and I guess, I'm left with hope.

Is that a comfort to you?

There are so many heroes in our time,
But they all go fucking nameless.
There is so much beauty in our lives,
But it all seems fucking tainted.
All those choices pass us by,
And worlds diverge and mock us with their faces.
Are we all just waiting to die?
It just can't be right.

Do I believe that one day I'll be happy?
And will it just be a day?
Because that, my friend, I don't know if I could take.
But I'll try anyway.
