it takes more time than i`ve ever had
drains the life from me
makes me want to forget
as young as i was, i felt older back then
more disciplined, stronger and certain
but i was scared to death of eternity
i was saved by grace
but destroyed by naivety
and i lied to myself
and said it was for the best
so now faith is replaced with a logic so cold
i`ve disregarded what i was
now that i`m older
and i know much more than i did back then
but the more i learn
the more i can`t understand
and i`ve become content with this life that i lead
where i drink to much and don`t believe in much of anything
and i lie to myself
and say "it`s for the best."
we`re moving forward, but holding ourselves back
and we`re waiting on something that will never come
