lyrics

Forgive my tears
I feel like I have lived a hundred years
I can’t tell if I have conquered my fears
Or if I just don’t care anymore

The end of the scene
This isn’t how I pictured it in my dreams
If you had asked me when I was 16
I thought I’d have figured out so much more

I miss the days, when life
Was simple and free
When I could dance with my sisters
In the autumn leaves
When life felt so permanent
And love didn’t have to be earned

Oh I had hope
1000 miles and 15 years ago
There were times I didn’t feel alone
And I tried so hard to make them last

I thought I knew
Good decisions, yeah I made a few
But then things fell apart like they tend to do
When you spend all your time in the past

There were times I thought
That I’d won the fight
It was stupid and wrong
But at least it felt right
Then I watched all my confidence
Flush down the drain
From two decades in a torrent of pain

Now I’m scared to think
What another might bring

So I turn the page
Another chapter in my tragedy
I’m just a player and the world is my stage
And the show must go on
The show must go on
