I'm not quite sure where to begin
My ink and time has run its end
I used to be a man of certainty and confidence but
Now every work that I spit out tastes of insecurity
And doubt
And as the years go by,
You go up in age,
You contemplate the things you never have before
(When did this band become a chore?)
And all the songs you wrote keeps you from being everything but broke
And your life is a joke
Nothing last forever (forever)
Dreams will last 'til you wake up
So I'll just stay up
What are you still doing in this place?
Your peers have gone and found a way
to educate themselves so they'll grow old and have something to show
I used to live at home
Twenty-one and currently jobless
And alone
You're wading in and out your past
You think too much to fill the lack
Of life experience
You need something to fill the gaps
Floundering in thoughts that kept you thinking you were right when you were wrong
You should have quit
While you were still a kid
Nothing lasts forever (forever)
Dreams will last 'til you wake up
So I'll just stay up
Nothing lasts forever (forever)
Dreams will last 'til you wake up
So I'll just stay up
oh-oh
We are the same
We are all going to the same place
Life is sad
We all die
Along with the dreams we had
Nothing lasts forever
Dreams will last 'til you wake up
Nothing last forever
(Nothing lasts forever)
Dreams will last 'til you wake up
(Dreams will last 'til you wake up)
Nothing lasts forever
(Nothing lasts forever)
Dreams will last 'til you wake up
You wake up, you wake up.
How can I clean up this mess?
I'm so obsessed that I'm depressed
from all the stress I've tried so desperately to suppress
I'm constantly in distress
and prized with sentiments I cannot express
