Hope slips through trained fingers, It's how it's always been

I can't seem to tear myself away, been living in the past with my mistakes

But I always find a way to numb the tension, bury thoughts alone

Under the skin to hide the damage done to my defense

Senses dulled then cracked, I concede that maybe

I'm unsure of just what it takes to frustrate and dismantle apathy

Rain, wash away the temptations before I let them get the best of me

A never ending cycle begins, so diseased and looking for a means to an end

I found nothings solid anymore, all that's left is try and I confess that maybe

I'm unsure of just what it takes to frustrate and dismantle apathy

Rain, wash away the temptations before I let them get the best of me

Designed and developed inside of my lungs, on the tip of my fucking tongue

But no one ever gets the point

That life is always about to fall to pieces, just something beautiful that's about to get wrecked

But no one wants to feel at all

Because we've made ourselves so numb, but I want to feel something

I won't ever live that way again, somewhere along the line I lost feeling

When our lives are consumed by society's fumes,

We punch our time clocks and watch the ignorance bloom

See I'm always turning backwards and forwards again retracing my steps to the bitter cold end

Rewind the tape and let me see exactly where it went wrong, indulge in our pasts strong

Designed and developed inside of my lungs on the tip of my fucking tongue

But no one ever gets the point

That life is always about to fall to pieces something beautiful that's about to get wrecked

But no one wants to feel at all

Because we made ourselves so numb, don't you want to feel something
