All those wasted years
Buying shit I don't need
All those lonely nights
Staring at the ceiling
If only I knew
How easy it is
To let it all go by
If only I knew
All those messy nights
Hanging out with people I never even liked
Only to pass the time
To build an empire of some kind
On building blocks of sand
If only I knew
How cruel you were
To let me think I loved you
If only I knew
Being somebody I never was
Locked inside that cage of misbelief
If only to escape
The tortures of the mind
