The Cycle Continues Lyrics

And the cycle continues

Repeat the previous steps

Nobody's blameless

Nobody's innocent

And it goes on forever

Nobody really wins

Until one of us dies

And answers for our sins

Don't try to rationalize it

There's nothing that can be undone

We made our choices

I guess we had our fun

And now that it's over

I'm ready to go to sleep

Hopefully forever

You had my soul to keep

Now I'm pushed out the door

Out in the cold

I thought we had forever

How could I be so bold

As to think that it could

Ever change

The more they do

The more they stay the same

Like how I'll always

Be perpetually alone

That was always gods will

To sink me like a stone

I could gasp for air but

What good would it do

Fighting the current

To get back to you

And as I get there

It's slightly out of reach

Slipped through my fingers

I was so naive

To think that I had

A fighting chance

Believing the lie

It was just passing glance

Into my future

Without my love

That I fought so hard for

But I could never rise above

All the pain

And all of the lies

The man in the mirror

Is someone I don't recognize

You used to be happy

Where did you go wrong

You used to have dreams

Why do you feel so small

The whole world in front of you

Well it's still out there

Just waiting for you

But it's not fair

So put on your shoes

Stand and be tall

This day's for you

But be prepared to fall

But get back up

I know that it's not so easy

But you've done it before

You don't have to believe me

Yeah you're right, I don't

I know it's not that simple

All these intrusive thoughts

From the same ripple

An everlasting wave

Constantly washes over me

But it doesn't clean

It doesn't set me free

Forever bogged down

When do I get to stand

On my own two feet

When can I understand

How to deal

From what I constantly ail

Moving on

From when I constantly fail

It's all too much

For me to get to sleep

I can't close my eyes

But I don't want to see

What my life has become

A constant punchline

The butt of the joke

Every time

What's more to say

What's done is done

There's no taking it back

I want to cut and run

Never had much to offer

Except my heart

It hasn't got me further

It's only torn me apart
