The World We Used to Know Lyrics by Shattered Skies

The World We Used to Know

0

Sparks rain down from time to time
Memories fall through my mind
Slipping out of my weak grip
Reality I struggle with
Soon truth crashes down on me
Now nothing more than a dream
Nothing more than a dream
You showed me all I could be
Come back to me
I'm not long for this world
Whatever I have left
Our own end we did create
I hear screams again, through my head they grate
I can't take this own my own
And all that I touch feels so much colder than the world we used to know
You made me just who I was
Gave me purpose gave me cause
Made me see I had a heart
Now all that's fallen apart
Farewell to my sense of self
For you gave that to me as well
Gave that to me as well
Finish me now
Finish this now
Oh please finish me now
I'm not long for this world
Whatever I have left
Our own end we did create
I hear screams again, through my head they grate
I can't take this own my own
And all that I touch feels so much colder than the world we used to know
So here I stand
All that I have ever known has
Turned to dust
Like we
Slowly faded away
I wish I knew
How all this would feel beside you
But there is no time to dwell
This life is mine to live...
Time is always marching on
Turn towards the setting sun
Though your time may soon be done
Live as though it's just begun
Time is always marching on
Turn towards the setting sun
Though your time may soon be done
Live as though it's just begun
Live as though it's just begun
Live as though it's just begun
