lyrics

Am I the last one standing?
But I feel so useless
I’ve got my hands to hold my head in
I’ve got my hands to tear your heart in two

What’s happened?
What’s happening?
I’m in this world that’s not familiar
It’s haunting
Oh so sickening
Is this what’s grown inside?

But if we pull together
We’ll make sure that we get past
With broken heartstrings
We strum the same chord
But in these ruins we will not last

You said you’d stay with me friend
But I’ve never felt more alone
I’ll take the knife out of my back
And hold it to your fucking throat

I’ve got a feeling I got it right
So listen to me one more time
You’re nothing special you’re on your own
This is where I draw the line

Now sing for me
Pushing hard against these walls
Now sing for me
Pushing hard against these walls

In this bullshit
Dishonest
Environment
This is a fucking war
Beyond comprehension
This was not my fucking intention

The future’s laid to waste
And what we have just will not last
We are carrying the weight
That’s been left to us
Burdens from our past
