lyrics

I feel so empty
Running down the same old paths
But the ends are not the same
Because youth and freedom never last

What begins as a thing familiar
Ends the night, false and hollow
Fields I once reaped for pleasure
Are now barren, dead, and fallow

Many years later and I can still count them
But through the haze of time they seem
Like broken dreams half remembered
Fantasies from another me

Lost. Life.
I still wish to lay upon sands of foreign shores
Lost. Life.
To sip from a cup that I've not even handled
But those days are gone, and the light of my youth has gone with them
Lost. Life.
The choices I've made have plotted the course
Lost. Life.
I've made these choices
And the plot cannot be rewritten

Many years later and still I can count them
But through the haze of time they seem
Like broken dreams half remembered
Fantasies of another fucking me

I cannot change what has been done
What never was and never will be
from this day on and I can
No longer be the man who was
Because he is dead to time and his virulence and his strength
Have all died with him
