Wasn't it supposed to get better? I thought I heard you say that: "One of these days you will get what's coming" Baby, you don't have a clue what it means to be Riding on the breaking point of destruction No rest for the ones who need it the most No peace for the weak and the poor In a position of opposition Endlessly grinding us down Ashes to ashes Dust to dust Some build for failure Some build for trust F*cked! Anxiety washes in it wants me to fail Putting me down A thousand ways to die But I ain't giving up It's not my time Though understanding may never come I'm not surprised We all buy into the circus Don't we? How could anyone resist? How could anyone even exist? I need some way to breathe Some way to reach out and touch someone To feel - like I am even real? Ashes to ashes Dust to dust Some build for failure Some build for trust Celebrate this day So far so good Tick... Tick... Ticking away These strange lands In between Let's pretend it's all illusion And die reaching for the dream Ashes to ashes Dust to dust Some build for failure Some build for trust
