[Verse 1]
I'm not quite sure where to begin
My ink and time is limited
I used to be a man of certainty and confidence
But now every word that I spit out tastes of insecurity and doubt
And as the years go by and you go up in age
You contemplate the things you never had before
When did this band become a chore?
And all the songs you wrote kept you from being everything but broke
And your life is a joke
[Chorus 1]
Nothing lasts forever, forever
Dreams will last until you wake up so I'll just stay up
[Verse 2]
What are you still doing in this place?
Your peers have gone and found a way
To educate themselves
So they'll grow old
And have something to show
But you still live at home
You're twenty-one and currently jobless and alone
You're wading in and out your past
You think too much due to lack of life experience
You need something to fill the gap
You're floundering in thoughts
That kept you thinking you were right when you were wrong
You should've quit while you were still a kid
[Chorus](x2)
Nothing lasts forever, forever
Dreams will last until you wake up so I'll just stay up
[Instrumental]
[Breakdown]
We are the same
We are all
Going to
The same place
Life is sad
We all die
Along with the
Dreams we had
[Chorus 2]
Nothing lasts forever
Dreams will last until you wake up
Nothing lasts forever
(Nothing lasts forever)
Dreams will last until you wake up
(Dreams will last until you wake up )
Nothing lasts forever
(Nothing lasts forever)
Dreams will last until you wake up
(Dreams will last until you wake up)
You wake up
You wake up
[Outro]
How can I clean up this mess?
I'm so obsessed that
I'm depressed from all the stress
I've tried so desperately to suppress
I'm constantly in distress
Comprised of sentiments I cannot express
(Nothing lasts forever)
How can I clean up this mess?
I'm so obsessed that
I'm depressed from all the stress
(Dreams will last until you wake up)
I've tried so desperately to suppress
I'm constantly in distress
Comprised of sentiments I cannot express
