What Have We Become
All those yearsOne day changes everything, andGone and your life and the passion fades awaySaving for somethingThat you’ll never see in your daysShutting out everything that you need
(Looking through distorted eyes)Beautiful disaster(Adding up a million lies)So much for “ever after”Building up your wallEverything you wantedFit the pieces into holes we used to crowd awayGiving in or leaving this nowNow we have what we have becomeAll the tearsWe never thought we’d see the day whenThe trappings of your life would seem to disappearGoin through the vacancy you leave behindNot what you have promised,Not what you believed
(Looking through distorted eyes)Beautiful disaster(Adding up a million lies)So much for “ever after”Building up your wallEverything you wantedFit the pieces into holes we used to crowd awayFinding out the truth, when nothing really mattersChase the light that’s blinding even as you crowd awayNow we have what we have becomeNow you fight to ease your painNow you know it’s not the way outNow you know it’s not the way outNot the way out
Building up your wallEverything you wantedFit the pieces into holes we used to crowd awayFinding out the truth, when nothing really mattersChase the light that’s blinding even as you crowd awayNow we have what we have become
