Decay Lyrics by Tremonti

All I Was

2012

[Verse 1]
Don't fight, there's nothing you can do
(Let it get the best of you)
I feel there's nothing I can say
(Look what you've gone and done to me)
Reach down and throw it all away

[Pre-Chorus]
You know this fight, it can't be won (It can't be won)
It can't be won

[Chorus]
They said that all we had we've wasted
It's something like decay
You know it won't be long
Before we've spent all our lives complacent
And isn't that a shame?
We've faded for so long
Yeah

[Verse 2]
Given a life and no one knew
(Had not one thing to do with you)
Your will is frozen to the core
(You want it less, but need it more)
Reach down and feel what you've become

[Pre-Chorus]
You know your fight has just begun (It's just begun)
It's just begun

[Chorus]
They said that all we had we've wasted
It's something like decay
You know it won't be long
Before we've spent all our lives complacent
And isn't that a shame?
We've faded for so long
So long

[Bridge]
Fading like decay!
Fading like decay!
Fading like decay!
Fading like decay!

[Chorus]
They said that all we had we've wasted
It's something like decay
You know it won't be long
Before we've spent all our lives complacent
And isn't that a shame?
We've faded for so long
So long!
