I still feel it
what died in you is burning inside
What awaits when the flame dies out
a 9 to 5 to define my life?
Another wave comes and goes
Convictions washed away with the tide
And we’re left with the pieces
of what you left behind
Am I making a change
or have I changed myself?
Am I breathing life
or wasting my breath?
So here’s your medal for growing up
and I’ll show you the door
I can only hope that you at least
take what you learned from us when you leave
I’ll be damn sure you’ll never destroy
what we’ve worked so hard to achieve
My mind’s still a weapon against the
outside world trying to fight its way in
The flame still burns
Can you say the same?
The hands of time
are tight around my neck
Counting down the days
until this anger fades away
Can’t turn my back on what we’ve built
to go through phases so unfulfilled
What’s been passed down, still tight in my grasp
And I’ll carry this torch until I collapse
