Lyrics: Perception Of I. Other. Nothing Lasts Forever.


I knew what to do and I did it wrong
Just one simple task but instead I stumble on
When the past comes to haunt me I just try to forget
That all this is falsified and bathed in regret
Just one thing can save me now
One last scream and I'm breaking out
No final lie for wasted youth
Instead I'll comfort myself with this unholy truth:

Nothing lasts forever
Nothing stays
Nothing lasts forever
No-one stays

Traumatised, prioritised, replaced and denied
When I tried to leave only part of me died
Emotionless, painless, it tears me apart
To see all this world and not give a fuck
And just one thing can save me now
One last scream and I'm breaking out
No final lie for wasted youth
Instead I'll comfort myself with this unholy truth:

Nothing lasts forever
Nothing stays
Nothing lasts forever
No-one stays
Perception Of I
