lyrics

My mind is no longer fascinated with its own dreams
I've stagnated
It's true that I cannot remember the last dream that I can remember
How am I supposed to relate to my children?
I have got to get something back that I lost so long ago
I have got to get something back before I leave this world

Before I leave this world
Before I leave this world
Before I leave this world

My muscles are no longer saturated with their old speed
I've maturated
It's true, my body cannot be made to do all the things
That it once used to do
But I would bend, I would break
I would hurt myself for you
Because I've got to get something back
And I feel I can find it with you
Because I've got to get something back before I leave this world

I have sleepwalked through parts of my life
And it felt like a death on wheels rolling with nowhere to go
So I reached out
And I sought some pleasure I hoped would make me feel alive
Oh, but what I found was pain
From which I could not close my eyes
Not sleeping, hardly eating, wasting away
But feeling every moment of every breath of every day through the pain
Oh oh, with no one left to blame

Live this life you have made
