Such potential wasted
On feeling chasing nothing
On a fleeting moment chasing nothing
And we prefer a lie
We prefer a lie
Over the truth about you and I
We beg for lies
We beg for lies we beg for lies
We pay for lies
And we want more
We've forgotten our colors
Life can be cruel
Time can be unforgiving
But we hold out hope for the sake of another
To be alive is to be conflicted
To be alive
You must find something worth fighting for
Something worth fighting for
Let's do art for art's sake
And make melodies
From music we've heard
Somewhere in our dreams
Somewhere in our dreams
We the poor find riches in our dreams
But are your dreams even your own
Have you forgotten to question everything
We have forgotten our place
we have forgotten the taste of life
All for a lie
We've forgotten our colors
Life can be cruel
Time can be unforgiving
But we hold out hope for the sake of another
To know life
You must give yours away
To be free
You must let go and realize
We're not here to stay
Nothing lasts forever
X2
Yesterday is gone
Like tomorrow will be gone
Like today will soon be gone
Like you and I will soon be gone
Yesterday is gone
Wake up
Life can be cruel
Time can be unforgiving
But we hold out hope for the sake of another
To know life
You must give yours away
To be free
You must let go and realize
We're not here to stay
Nothing lasts forever
Yesterday is gone
