just like your time, it's gone, in a flash, in a flash
|
a mayfly's desire for an hour of life
|
if you want protection, you won't find it here
|
no one makes it out alive
|
running after illusion, spending precious time
|
wasting precious time
|
misinterpret salvation with your reason and your rhyme
|
|
so concerned about the outside world
|
think this is taking too long
|
|
the feeling's gone unaware of the consequences and our hatreds carry on
|
never a thought, our delusions, our confusion, and our actions feel so wrong
|
|
you tried so hard to find your safety net
|
but all you found was lies and lost regret
|
standing still, you fight the will
|
that comes from deep inside yourself
|
inside yourself
|
|
my stone to push, your cross to bear
|
this struggle is endless and it gets us nowhere
|
your stone to push, my cross to bear
|
this struggle is endless and it gets us nowhere
|
|
the feeling's gone unaware of the consequences and our hatreds carry on
|
never a thought, our delusions, our confusion, and our actions feel so wrong
|
the feeling's gone unaware of the consequences and our hatreds carry on
