lyrics

When you’re sayin’ what you’re sayin’ do you hear?
‘Cause I hear the chemicals taking over.
When you’re feelin’ what you’re feelin’ do you fear?
‘Cause I fear that I’m gonna lose a friend.
It’s the cases of delusion that I hate.
I can’t take to know that you’re rotting slowly.
But it’s a stirring kind of rage
The kind that makes some people change,
The kind that makes them alone and afraid.

When you’re lying, justifying all of your shame, a faceless voice seems to shine right through.
The only honest, humble moments that I can see are just so far between and so few.
We used to laugh, we used to share, you used to always seem to care,
But where there once stood joy now only burdens lay.
But there’s still hope for tides to turn.
I’ve realized and I have learned there’s always time for strong people to change.

So we can grow better right now ‘til forever.
The pits that we made then can’t keep us apart.
The good times and laughter from here on and after
Will not be just memories alone in the dark.
