Orpheus

Hey, I just came back from Hell No sound when I left I turned my back Watched you disappear Oh, hey, it's really hard to say I know there's no way to bring this back The moment is lost Living for a moment but in truth you'll never own it The time is always now the present's the most potent Hindsight is always right with crystal clear visions Same ones that won't help you, better your positions Ever moving forward never glancing to my rear And any action that I take approach it with no fear Never tread with trepidation in any situation 'Cause you can try to avoid your fate but you'll still face it Paradise was lost and life is just a hoax Whatever we do make the most of it before we ghost Before the final bell tolls and the fat lady calls At the end of the show make sure there's claps and applause Encore for yours truly entertainers of all Only a wise man knows himself to be a fool Orpheus taught us to look forward never look back Or risk it all playing games with cards that are stacked All I ever wanted was to run away, try and escape to another place Got us in a rat race unwinable chase everyday we say tomorrow is another day Everyday it's like we're nearing the end of the days In the midst of it it all put on a brave face Whole worlds in a daze or set ablaze what's freedom in a maze that you can't escape Living life really you're living a lie Sheep with wool covered all over your eyes Say they gave you vision but they went and made you blind You're in your minds own prison and you're living a lie Everyday getting moved like a chess piece From the day that you're born till you rest in peace Your fate is preordained by society And everyday that you wake up you're still... asleep And when I'm dead, I'll be with you (I'll be with you, with you, with you) Oh you're so near, but you're so far (Oh so far, you're - oh, so far) So little to do so I'm not blue (I am not blue, not blue, not blue) Just to fade away (Just to fade away) Hey, I just came back from Hell No sound when I left I turned my back Watched you disappear Oh, hey, it's really hard to say I know there's no way to bring this back The moment is lost
