Too old to dream
Too young to die
Become the placeholder and fall in line
Seep through the cracks we made with time
Everyday pills and bloodshot eyes
I imagine that you’ve had enough
Hanging on day after day
Now this time that the pawn caught your bluff
You can go ahead and state your claim
I won’t be a part of your endgame
They want to blow up the outside world
They want to blow up the outside world
I imagine that you’ve had enough
Hanging on day after day
(From the inside)
Now this time that the pawn caught your bluff
(From the inside out)
You can go ahead and state your claim
I won’t be a part of your endgame
Soak up the rays of yesterday’s sun
Slip through the cracks of a world built for no one (From the inside)
You found your disguise
A reason to hide
A proper demise (From the inside out)
Our universe never stood a chance (This whole universe never stood a chance)
Never stood a chance (This whole universe never stood a chance)
Never stood a chance (This whole universe never stood a chance)
This whole universe don’t stand a chance
