Cruelest Defeats

I lost myself on the road when I was barely sixteen Then found my peace in the dark where I could never be seen Maybe this world isn't good enough for me you see Maybe the hole in my heart just needs a place to breathe I watched you reach for the sun until you stopped to grow You danced your way through the light, ignored the rain once more You say the clouds up above you are not meant to be feared I think the storm's never far behind you till you sink So you can wait among the living While I'm staying outside this box and never looking in So you can wait among the living But the pain you feel is meant to never go away If you could wake up again Then would you erase the flaws and start it all over again? If you could wake up again Then you would still hear my voice instead We face the cruelest defeat we never could have foreseen I got to live like a ghost, you fell while chasing your dreams Maybe the paths that we trod will cross again one day For now the gap between us is only here to stay So you can wait among the living But the shame you feel is meant to never go away If you could wake up again Then would you erase the flaws and start it all over again? If you could wake up again Then you would still hear my voice instead Maybe the seeds of time will appease the fire And gave us will to feel more alive Life goes by, still we don't feel at home So if you could wake up again Would you erase the flaws and start it all over again? So if you could wake up again Then you would still hear my voice instead If you could wake up again Would you erase the flaws and start it all over again? If you could wake up again Then you would still hear my voice instead You would still hear my voice instead You would still hear my voice instead
