Tell me, can you see this fear I know so well
Seeping out from underneath the mask I try to sell
Once a glimmer, but with life and age I fell
Stuck in this illusion, in an air I can't dispel

I wanna break free of the mem'ries that I've made
Under the plastic sky, just dying to be saved
But it's not my time, and I know it's not the way
Yeah it's bittersweet, but what else is there to say?
Knowing someday soon, I'll find freedom in the end
But for now I sit and wait for this cycle to begin once again

Feel the pressure in this vacuum I call home
Void of my emotion, I just wanna be alone
Tired anger, as the static turns to tone
Ringing in my mind until it seems it's all I've known

All's well that ends well, yet were stuck here in this scene
Playing like a rerun in a never ending dream
Still it's not my time, and I know it's not the way
Yeah it's bittersweet, but what else is there to say?
Knowing someday soon, I'll find freedom in the end
But for now I sit and wait for this cycle to begin once again

Life waits for no one, or so I fear
Yeah it's not my time, and I know it's not the way
Yeah it's bittersweet, but what else is there to say?
Knowing someday soon, I'll find freedom in the end
But for now I sit and wait for this cycle to begin once again
