To Outlive Myself (No Turning Back) Lyrics


It happened so fast

Yet it seems like a lifetime ago

Do you remember, what you believed?

The way it was, supposed to be

I’ve changed myself or something changed inside

I have come to see, the reality of life

All colours – now turning black

All colours

All colours – now turning black

All colours

And so it came to pass

The only way it could really end

I’ve surrendered, given up myself

Always too much of a coward for anything else

We seek the answers but the reasons we hide

I have realised, the travesty of life

All colours – now turning black

All colours

All colours – now turning black

All colours

… there’s no turning back

To outlive myself

Now there’s nothing left – there is no one else

I’ll outlive myself

Just awaiting death - there is nothing else

I’ll outlive myself

With that died the last

The one we all thought would remain

It never ends, as you hoped it would

The master plan was misunderstood

The weight of the world can never be denied

I have accepted, the fatality of life

All colours – now turning black

All colours

All colours – now turning black

All colours

… there’s no turning back

To outlive myself

Now there’s nothing left – there is no one else

I’ll outlive myself

Just awaiting death - there is nothing else

With the falling of the first snow

I cling to life…    yet let go…

Upon the Autumn Throne
