lyrics

It started out as such a joke
something to pass the time
Everyone gets burnt out
so see it through
Don't let things get you down
I've heard it a million times before
I'm so damn done with that one petty phrase
Give in, let go
there is no notion your will cannot grasp

The evening buzz keeps we wry
so much for perfect nirvana, it's overrated
Bias delusion, oh what a sweet illusion
keeps us from being human
Well I can't break this by myself
there's only so much one can do
Alone it'll never work
stuck between the same and it repeats

I will try, even when loves goin' rough
The only one, ever gave me just a touch
The only time, I was ever tough enough

The sombre comes and then it goes
right back where you started, easy enough said
Slashing back the endless ego
those thoughts will consume you
strike back and be true
you ain't defeated yet
Go on

What's the difference between hope and retreat

I will try, even when loves goin' rough
The only one, ever gave me just a touch
The only time, I was ever tough enough

When I try to settle down my nerves
The rush of my obsessions converge
My love hurts so much it's absurd

True ambition, doesn't lack decision
Does it have to be the story that we're told
