This lie that we've fed to ourselves won't change the fact that we're stuck here on this path
We've lost the trail, lost the map, lost all hope of ever coming back
I can't fix this
I'm just a useless man
(Always tired)
And any effort spent will be
(Feeling old)
Effort wasted, left to rot in the place where we
(Overgrown)
Stand
And I will prove to be useless
Under every stone, behind each tree is something I wish I hadn't seen
Every blade of grass, every grain of sand will be stripped away from my broken hands
And when you ask me where my head lies beneath the setting sun tonight, I'll tell you that I'm not sure, and that I'm alright
