Destroyer of Dreams Lyrics by Jake Bateman

Chapter V (Deluxe Reissue)

2017

[Intro]
This is the page where it all burns down
[Chorus]
Don't you know
That's the way that it goes
Petals fall to the floor on their own (on their own)
Won't you show
That you're ever afraid of me
Destroyer of dreams (destroyer of dreams)
[Verse 1]
Sometimes the world
Likes to kick us down
Try as you may you'll never kick us out
I, I can't comply (no i can't, no i can't comply)
With my, my 9 to 5 (what a lousy waste of time)
[Pre-Chorus]
This is the page where it all burns down
[Chorus]
Don't you know
That's the way that it goes
Petals fall to the floor on their own (on their own)
Won't you show
That you're ever afraid of me
Destroyer of dreams (destroyer of dreams)
[Verse 2]
What constitutes
As a weak link to you
'cause truth is staring you down ('cause truth is staring you down)
Why can't things conside (tell me why can't they conside)
And find some piece of mind (all i want is piece of mind)
[Pre-Chorus]
This is the page where it all burns down
[Chorus]
Don't you know
That's the way that it goes
Petals fall to the floor on their own (on their own)
Won't you show
That you're ever afraid of me
Destroyer of dreams (destroyer of dreams)
[Bridge]
Let me lay my weary head to rest
Your cruel intentions i can guess
I'm giving up, are you satisfied
That what i love has gone and died
Let me lay my weary head to rest
Your cruel intentions i can guess
I'm giving up, are you satisfied
That what i love has gone and died
[Chorus]
Don't you know (don't you know)
That's the way that it goes (way it goes)
Petals fall to the floor on their own (on their own)
Won't you show (won't you show)
That you're ever afraid of me (afraid of me)
Destroyer of dreams (destroyer of dreams)
