Some curses seem to come back around by season,
I can't imagine I did anything wrong this time,
What the hell I wonder as I watch my life set aflame,
No point in fixing it, it’s already been lit,
Watch it all go down the drain again.Pre-Chorus
Lessons learned aren't lessons spent,
Get lost in the cycle 'cause I never bothered to repent,
How long will this one go? I have to wander,
When will it all slow down so I can get off and start again from scratch?Chorus
On and on the cycle goes,
No slowing down to show me the ropes,
Live the life in which you were chose,
Replace the dreams with these empty hopes.
Caught in the tide, I’m drowning in reality
My fist fulls of hair to express my frustration
My mouth is wide open, I've never been okay
This life has been rotten to me day by day
With every season, I fall and I rise again
But I'm flailing in the darkness, not seeing a light
Your words lick me like glady but, I'll glady embrace lies
To shut you up and make the pain subside
Wrapped up in the chaos, my selves they hide
The flickering flame, it teaches me what not to find
To face my demons, I’ll break from this shell,
How long will this ride last? Questions echo down a well
Finding my place in a world I wasn't made for
On and on the ferry goes,
No slowing down to show me the ropes,
Live the life in which you were chose,
Replace the dreams with these empty hopes.
Caught in the tide, I’m drowning in this cruel fate
No matter what I meant to you ill never ever stay
There is novody to hold the light for you
And you'll never have it all your way
So here’s to the lessons, the scars that I bear,
Each one a reminder that life’s never fair,
But I’ll keep on sailing through waves of regret,
Waiting the days that come with a pain in my chest
On and on the ferry goes,
No slowing down to show me the ropes,
Live the life in which you were chose,
Replace the dreams with these empty hopes.
Caught in the tide, I’m drowning in dreams now
Don't shake me awake silent screams so loud
Burnt it all down watch it go up in flames
Lighting up the dark to no dismay
So watch me burn, in your eyes
From the ashes, I’ll come to the sky
With every curse that returns like a friend,
I’ll learn to stand strong—this is the end.
