Life begins in darkness
Conceived and born in vain
Another incarnation
Resurrected once again
Inverted by delusions
A sickness in your fate
Regrets and faded memories
Only ashes left here in your wake
When reality fades and all is broken
Will we realize time has no mercy?
Dead underneath
Alone inside
Hopeless desire
To redefine
If only you could change
And find a way to believe
If only you could take this life and reverse
A code remains immortal
A pattern left unseen
Another wasted timeline
Another wasted dream
The path of most resistance
The only one you take
Distorted by your memories
Never rising out of this decay
We don’t make this cold existence
We don’t mean to fall apart
And I reach for purpose
With only none to find
When reality fades and all is broken
Will we realize time has no mercy?
Dead underneath
Alone inside
Hopeless desire
To redefine
If only you could change
And find a way to relive
If only you could take this life and reverse
And even if another life is over
I’ll still be reborn
And even if it means a life unlived
Years torn away
