lyrics

Was it wrong for me to think that nothing could come from this pain?
And wasn’t the first time just like the last?
So full of doubt
An empty glass

Well it’s too late
We’ve run around towards a never ending spiral down
An inside view of the end
The end of something great
Something pure
Something profound
A solution to a former life
Where once we shared a greater sense of each other
Built everything that surrounds us

As winter’s edge returns to sun, unknowingly under sung
Like we are thieves, are trampled the leaves
They turn into mud under foot

The children, they surround me
I still remember
You were so kind, in the garden
The children, they surround us

It wasn’t you at all

For years and years and years, I couldn’t see straight
But now that I can see it’s already too late
The pictures you drew, of greater men than me
They will all turn to dust
Life’s one great guarantee
We welcome new seasons and forget old reasons
We’re dying for the sake of our past
We welcome new seasons and forget old reasons
Because it’s the last of our futures

Like parasites looking up to heaven
They always make me sick
I refuse to forget
These regrets, they follow me into day after day

For years and years and years I couldn’t see straight
But now that I can see it’s already too late
The pictures that you drew of greater men than me
They will all turn to dust
Life’s one great guarantee
