Vain Words From Empty Minds (Redux)

Waking up on the other side of the sunrise My dilation will stay the same I've grown accustomed to these cold winds Sending shivers down my back This is how I live This is how I will die You can tell me I'm sick I still think you're full of shit My serenity is in the empty half Of the hourglass And when the time runs out I will turn the tables We are no different than the ones you stand by On the outside The differences between you and I Lie inside A life Consisting of a constant high At least I'll always know That I'm alive At least I know I'm alive! When will you realize that you take all this too seriously Live life by the owl's call Fuck the ones that try to tell you how the system breathes Live life by the owl's call My serenity is in the empty half Of the hourglass And when the time runs out I will turn the tables It's so sad to me The worst part of you Took away the best part of me Away the best part of me I used to tell myself That I would never become someone else But I thought I told myself I was going to be somebody It's not coincidence things played out this way I know you had this planned from the start Luckily for me I can see right through you now I can see right through you now
