The Dream Is Dead

Nothing will be waiting for you at the end of this life So make your peace with it When you become a silhouette to the world There's no light to lead you in The colors that you love begin to fade away You'll find you never got what you gave Fuck wishing for better days Complacent in the mess you made Self-inflicted, you're to blame for your pain Left to rot an empty soul inside a hollow hell I gave up on you long before you gave up on yourself I gave up on you long before you gave up on yourself I gave up on you long before you gave up on yourself! You bit off more than you could ever chew How will you measure your life at the end when it's through Watch you dissolve, wither away Death will be your only infinity Make your peace with it It's hard to wish you the best Don't crawl back, don't forgive me Bury your pain in a shallow grave It's hard to wish you the best When all you do is let me down, down, down I never needed you around What's left to say... That's not already been said before I don't feel hope anymore What's left to say... Let it fade away, let it fade away! I gave up on you long before you gave up on yourself I gave up on you long before you gave up on yourself You bit off more than you could ever chew How will you measure your life at the end when it's through No hope for better days Death will be your only infinity Misguided by a false light Nothing will be waiting for you at the end of this life Nothing will be waiting for you at the end of this life Make your peace with it It's hard to wish you the best Don't crawl back, don't forgive me Bury your pain in a shallow grave It's hard to wish you the best When all you do is let me down, down, down I never needed you around What's left to say... That's not already been said before I don't feel hope anymore What's left to say... Let it fade away, let it fade away! I gave up on you long before you gave up on yourself I gave up on you long before you gave up on yourself!

The world, the world is better off without you Now you're nothing but a ghost to me Tucked in the back of my head A headache that will never end Rest assured Worse off than I was before Why Why feel at all Why Sympathy just leads to loss Why A heart of stone Why I won't bear your cross Let all I love die away Watch it burn up in flames No silver lining in front of me The bend before the break What's done is done To hell with everything you ever said You left me lost You left me haunted What's done is done To hell with everything The dream is dead You are the ghost I never wanted You are the ghost I never wanted At war with everything That keeps me alive That keeps me breathing Burning bridges is the only way I keep from sinking Why Why feel at all Why Sympathy just leads to loss Why A heart of stone Damned to walk this earth alone The world is better off without you You're nothing more than a dying fucking memory The world is better off without you You're a dying fucking memory The world is better off without you You're nothing more than a dying fucking memory What's done is done To hell with everything you ever said You left me lost You left me haunted What's done is done To hell with everything The dream is dead You are the ghost I never wanted Let all I love die away You left me lost You left me haunted Watch it burn up in flames You are the ghost I never wanted You're a dying fucking memory You're a dying fucking memory
