Dreams lie smashed again

They've pinned your back to the wall

Like faded pictures of what might have been

Fate is cruel when dreams, like candles, fade

Smashed again down into the gray

Despise for a world turned cold

No one sees what tomorrow knows



There's a shame in blind suffering

Dishonor from the inside

Find hope from the voice within

Clear vision of your own mind



Mistakes you wear like your skin

You wish you'd never been born

Stand up, you can't escape your past

But fools will try just to forget

From where they came

Smashed again down into the gray

Despise for a world grown cold

No one sees what tomorrow knows



No more color to will to fade

To see life clearly, regretful nevermore

Take the time, make the time



There's shame in false victory

Dishonor from the inside

False pride, all you can't redeem

Clear vision of your own mind
