Let me tell you a disturbing lullaby Anything you’ve ever felt may be a lie Still you look at me with such disbelief The glory of the past is what you reminisce Ego is a never ending precipice Waiting for a miracle yet you don’t believe in it When the whole world knows you miss your aim When you're on your knees trying to explain well I disdain Don’t you ever wonder of what might have been? Given that you grew up chasing just a dream… Defeated now, you kiss the pavement You used to spit on, boy were you so wrong Now your stare is empty and your mind is gone You lost every bit of what you dreamed for so long Look into the mirror tell me, what do you see? When the world around you turns to dust Remember you were once the star of your cast Losing at your own game, I would explain But I disdain Ashes to ashes and dust to dust Can’t make a future based on your past Ashes to ashes and dust to dust Can’t make a future based on your past
