I'd rather live for something more
Than let myself just waste away
We're falling forward towards the same end
Living at a pace that's just day to day
Cause when the sun goes down it's more wasted time
Another day of never knowing what I'm looking to find
Searching for an out but it's never enough
Reaching for the surface but I'm losing touch
Maybe I'll never know just what it means
To live a life that you see as clean
But the standards that I've set were only meant for me
Nothing changes at the end of the day
You find yourself locked inside of your old ways
It's never enough just to do what you can
Why am I the only one with an empty hand
Another day spent just wasting away
And I've yet to understand what you were meaning to say but it never goes down the way you figured it'd play
So I'm stuck here searching for an open hand but I'm still moving back with no room to stand
Reaching for the surface but it's too far gone
Caught in this daily struggle to hold on
A broken man with nothing to lose
These circumstances remind me of you
This was never what I wanted to be
I hope it's not how you remember me
All I wanted was a place to call home
But I found hell instead and empty roads to roam
When it's over I don't wanna see
The way that this will reflect on me
A cry for comfort, a shadow of doubt
I guess I'll never really figure it out
(So much to say but less to do)
(Burning inside but ruined you)
