Ever since one fated day
My world's been fading to gray
Despite the unclouded sky
Staining the Earth with its dye

Afraid of taking the leap
Or to forevermore sleep
With cowardice as my guard
I'll keep enduring these scars

A spiral without an end
To solitude I'm condemned
Barely able to recall
How full of joy I once was

My life now follows this trend
Of every day that I spend
Staring into a screen
And simply daring to dream

Oh
How fucking foolish that I used to be
Why did I ever think forgiveness would be granted to me

Sealed within an embrace of chilling contempt
It's clear for all to see
This is where I've always belonged
The future I've chased
Of which I've dreamt
Begins its slow entropy
A fate so cruely prolonged

Another sunrise to greet
Another taste to defeat
The cycle's once more disturbed
And time feels all the more blurred

To be alive with no goal
Is slowly draining my soul
If my whole life's been in vain
I think I might go insane

Say, what else is left
But remaining as a slave to monotony
Say, what is my cause
How long will this nightmare go on

Sealed within an embrace of chilling contempt
It's clear for all to see
This is where I've always belonged
The future I've chased
Of which I've dreamt
Begins its slow entropy
A fate so cruely prolonged

Just let me feel at peace
I wonder if I were to take that one final step
Will the sky let me sleep

Chained inside what I once thought would be my sanctuary
The shackles rust yet never break

Forced to see myself torn
By which path I'll pursue
Maybe I'll be reborn
And return as somebody new
And if that were to be
I could make up for everything I lack
So the next time the sky smiles at me

I can smile back
