Lyrics
We all try to live in sync
We all strive to live in harmony
In time without consequences
In a period without facing repercussions
Like skin without the ink
Similar to unmarked skin
Pure, without all the markings
Pure, without the scars and symbols
Of life we live so bitter
Describing the bitterness of life we experience
And so full of regret
Filled with regret
We can't help but consider
Contemplating a delicate, distant conclusion
A distant fragile end
Reflecting on a fragile end
We were bred to call it life
We were taught to call it life
But have only grown to struggle
But have only experienced hardship
Looking back from where I am
Reflecting on the past from the current perspective
It never really ends
Suggesting that it never truly concludes
We're too petty to agree
Human nature is too small-minded to find common ground
Our love was only letters
Love reduced to mere letters
I knew you better then
Understanding someone better in the past
Now we are only strangers
Now estranged from each other
And we ended it so bitter
Ending a relationship with bitterness and regret
And so full of regret
Full of remorse for the way it concluded
We couldn't help but consider
Considering a definite and shallow conclusion
A sure and shallow end
Reflecting on the illusion of having it all
We thought we had it made
Initial belief in a perfect situation
But only made each other suffer
Only causing pain and hardship for each other
Looking back from where I am
Looking back, realizing it should have ended earlier
It should have ended years ago
Acknowledging a delayed conclusion
I made it all up years ago
Admitting to fabricating the past
I made it up so you would learn to love me
Creating a false narrative to secure love
Allow me to explain
Expressing a desire to clarify
I swear I'll make it short
Promising a brief explanation
Allow me to explain
Repeating the intention to explain
I swear it's worth your while
Ensuring that the explanation is worthwhile
I fill these blank pages
Filling blank pages with deceit and false claims
With lies and false statements
Comparing fabricated stories to criminals in captivity
Like crooks in their cages
Metaphorically describing a helpless state
Just left there to rot
Using a metaphor for a sense of hopelessness
I fill these small stairwells
Filling confined spaces with imaginative stories
With stories and tall tails
Creating tales and narratives
Like a train where the track fails
Comparing to a train derailed with no chance of recovery
All hope is gone
Alluding to a loss of hope
Set up like a sonnet
Structured like a sonnet with an inevitable conclusion
The line ends regardless
Despite the structure, the end is inevitable
But like a drop through a faucet
Using a metaphor for a continuous, uncontrollable flow
It never seems to stop
Despite expectations, it doesn't cease
So if it's just how you planned it
If this is the intended outcome
To the breath your life ended
Reflecting on the moment life ceases
From the moment you saw him
From the instant of realizing a mistake
You knew we'd gone wrong
Acknowledging a deviation from the right path
